Time+Tide’s October 2019 review is useful for understanding that contrast, not for confirming today’s price or availability.
What the review says the two watches share
Time+Tide’s review presents the SJE075 and SJE077 as contrasting tributes to Seiko’s original Laurel. Both have plain dials, a date at 3 o’clock, Breguet-style Arabic numerals, and steel cases with a super-hard coating. The author characterizes the pair as dressy options suitable for daily wear.
The article describes both references as measuring 39.5 mm. A 2019 Seiko catalog search-result excerpt, however, lists the SJE077J1 at 39.0 mm. The sources therefore do not establish a settled diameter for the SJE077; check the specific watch’s documentation if case size is important to your decision.
How the SJE075 and SJE077 dials differ
| Reference | Dial and details | Character in the review |
|---|---|---|
| SJE075 | White dial, distinctive red 12, and blued steel hands | More vintage-looking, in the author’s description |
| SJE077 | Midnight-blue dial | More low-key, in the author’s description |
Felix Scholz summarized the contrast in the Time+Tide review: “Reference SJE075 is the white dial, which amps up the vintage look, with the distinctive red 12 and blued steel hands, while SJE077 serves some more low-key style, in midnight blue.”

What the catalog excerpt specifies for SJE077
A search-result excerpt from The Seiko Guy’s 2019 catalog PDF identifies the SJE077J1 and lists these details:
- Blue enamel dial and 6L35 movement
- Stainless-steel case
- Crocodile band plus an additional leather band
- Box-shaped sapphire crystal with inner anti-reflective coating
- Screw see-through case back
- 3 bar water resistance
- 39.0 mm case diameter, which conflicts with Time+Tide’s 39.5 mm figure
The catalog excerpt does not establish a complete SJE075 specification sheet. Its details should not be treated as specifications for both watches.

How to use the 2019 price and review today
Time+Tide listed the pair at $4,700 AUD on leather in its October 2019 article. That is a dated price, not a verified current asking price or market valuation. The review page says it was made in partnership with Seiko and that the opinions expressed were the publisher’s own under its editorial policy. For a purchase decision, verify the exact reference, condition, included straps, specifications, and seller’s current price directly.
Read the Time+Tide review by Felix Scholz, published 4 October 2019. The available catalog details for the SJE077 are from a 2019 catalog search-result excerpt; the PDF itself was not available to inspect.
