Alba is a watch brand from Seiko Watch Corporation, first launched in Japan in 1979. Seiko created it for younger buyers, mainly in Asia and the Middle East, and fits Alba watches with movements from the Seiko family. Over the years Alba has borrowed Seiko designs, including work by the Italian car designer Giorgetto Giugiaro.
We’ve bought, used and rated 710 accessories products so far, 313 of them in Watches. Products in Watches average an FA score of 8.1 out of 10. Every score comes from our own testing, never from the brand.
We rate it 9/10 (excellent) after buying and testing it ourselves. What we liked most: Authentic Seiko heritage backed by a reliable in-house Seiko Y676 21-jewel automatic movement. Could be better: The printed Alba logo branding on the dial feels slightly oversized and prominent.
It’s listed on Amazon, Flipkart and Myntra. The store buttons at the top of this page open each listing, so you can check today’s price and sizes there.
Case diameter: 41 mm; Case material: Stainless Steel; Glass material: Mineral Glass; Strap style: Oyster Bracelet. See Specifications above for the full details.
We score its design and comfort together at 9/10 (excellent), after wearing it ourselves.
Its value-for-money score is 9/10 (excellent): we weigh what you get against similar products we’ve tested.
No. Alba is from Japan, founded in 1979, and it is owned by Seiko Watch Corporation.
We buy every product ourselves and score it out of 10 on material quality, design and comfort and value for money. The FA score is the average of those scores. No paid placements: brands can’t buy a better score.
