Together with the chronograph, I do believe that the combination of a dive watch with a traveller’s function, a.k.a a GMT complication, makes for some of the most attractive and practical watches. In short, it’s your go-anywhere, do-anything kind of watch. And not only for summer but for any time you want to be a […]

Many new releases from Seiko rely on inspiration from the brand’s rich back catalogue, and the case of the new Prospex GMT 1968 Diver’s Re-interpretation follows that trend.

There are very classical ones, with simple black or blue dials, but also more outspoken editions such as the Kosuke Kawamura SRPJ41 and SRPJ43 or a series with camo […]
While Prospex is the collection for Seiko’s sports and professional watches, Presage can be seen as the dressy, classic collection of the brand. Divided into four sub-collections – Sharp Edged, Cocktail, Style 60s and Craftsmanship Series – it’s the latter that will be the centre of attention today. To celebrate 110 years of watchmaking, a […]
