To me it's worth it since you are getting the same movement as the higher priced non-seiko5 models but at a cheaper price tag..only thing to decide is if you like the design i.e. the 5 emblem.

Bro, u r right. Its e 5 emblem that is stopping me...knowing e mivt is of slightly better than normal, but just can't pull trigger yet knowing Seiko 5 is much more 'cheaper' model.

Funny how some vintage seikos with '5 sports' are more rare and sought after. Maybe 20 yrs from now the current seiko 5's will be valued differently.. :lol:

Anybody knows if the 5 second hand can be replaced by any current after market parts?
