Maybe it’s the hands and shape of the markers.

What is the main difference between Seiko 5 and another (not 5) Seiko Automatic watches? Sorry if I’m newbie on watches..

Seiko 5 is the entry level product line for Seiko automatic watches. They are powered by the 4Rxx movement or 7Sxx movement in the past.
Other “non 5” Seiko automatic watches come from product lines like Mechancal, Presage, Ananta, Prospex and Grand Seiko. These watches have better movements and finishing.

It is common for Seiko to put the same hands on different models.
