Seiko’s reputation for reliable and durable diver’s watches was forged in the 1960’s and 1970’s when they were chosen by adventurers and researchers on expeditions to the north and south poles. Today, Seiko introduces three legendary diver’s modern re-interpretation watches into the Prospex collection. Drawing design inspiration from this period on the glaciers that these pioneers saw which shape the landscapes and seascapes of the Arctic and Antarctic. Each watch has a dial that evokes a different shade of glacial ice, from deep blue to white.

A light blue dial and a darker blue bezel grace a new re-creation of the landmark 1968 diver’s watch which was the first Seiko watch with 300m water resistance and a 10-beat automatic movement.

All three watches are powered by the tried and trusted Caliber 6R35 which delivers a power reserve of 70 hours. They are 200-meter water resistant and are presented on steel bracelets with secure clasps and extenders. The cases have a super-hard coating, and the crystals are of sapphire with an anti-reflective coating on the inner surface to ensure high legibility from every angle. All twelve indexes have a generous coating of Lumibrite, as do the hands, to maximize legibility in the dark.
These three watches join the Seiko Prospex Save the Ocean series. This program delivers financial and other support to Seiko’s chosen marine charities. All three watches will be available at the Seiko Boutiques and select retail locations worldwide from June 2022. To learn more about the various projects of the Save the Ocean initiative, visit here.
