This watch was a dream that is now a reality now over 50 years since I received my first Sheffield in 1970. Incredible specification and build with a distinctive design that still stands out today while respecting the intent of the original.

This automatic diver features a 40mm case with vintage aesthetic, 200m water resistance, and reliable Seiko movement. Customers praised its "exceptional quality for the price," excellent lume, comfortable FKM strap, and retro styling. The build quality impressed shoppers who noted it "punches way above its weight." Some found the black bezel coating looked cheap. Universally praised for value.

I plan on doing a full review on my channel, but here are a few words. I’m wearing it right now. It’s got a look like nothing else I own. I like how the strap is long enough for my wrist. The size is great, too. The overall fit, finish, and feel of the watch is, shall we say, pleasant. Nice enough polishing on the sides with a soft lateral brushing on the top of the case and lugs. The dial is cool-looking with the vintage aesthetic, but I’m not sure how I feel about the silver/steel-bordered indices. Some will probably like the black coating g on the rotating bezel, but to me it makes it look cheap. Almost like plastic. Regardless, I’m happy to have it and can recommend it. But if you can find a discount code or when it’s on sale would be best.

Love it! Bought the red/blue GMT first then the 1A. For the price it’s hard to find a better automatic. Great looking unique style, feels solid, robust movement, lume is good (including fully lined bezel), winding is smooth, bezel action tight, strap supple, plus 200m WR! I’d say it’s a home run!

I'm really happy I found this watch! So glad the brand was brought back with this blast from the past. My Dad got me the original on my 12th birthday, which I still have. The quality is great at this price point, nicely finished, excellent lume, and the FKM strap is more comfortable than the original Tropic. The Seiko movement is a real workhorse and reliable, so you can't go wrong with getting one of these, they are awesome!

I actually wantedthe "Camp25", but since it's sold out, got the Allsport. And I'm pleased with it. Had it over a month and worn it pretty much non-stop. Changed out the band for a quality steel link one which dressed it up. I am an outdoorsman and it's held up to everyday use. No wear or damage and just keeps ticking. I think it's worth every penny. These watches shoot way above their price point, especially for an automatic movement. The lume glows for several minutes after hitting it with a flashlight. The feel and look are quality. It gets complements. I like the magnified date window. You can feel that the crown and function are quality. I'd put it up against timepieces people pay 10 times as much for. Wouldn't hesitate to buy another... A camp 25 if ever available.

Very nice diver with a retro look. The second watch I ever owned was a Sheffield so having the ALLSPORT brings back fond memories.

Great design and beautiful finish. Very happy with the watch and it definitely looks like it should be more expensive. I’ve gotten several compliments and I love the way it looks on my wrist. I previously returned another model as it simply wasn’t to my taste when I tried it on and the customer service was impeccable. I’ll be a customer for life.
