Key Features
- Stainless Steel Case and Silicone Strap: The case is crafted from durable stainless steel, offering excellent resistance to corrosion and wear, while the silicone strap ensures comfort and flexibility, even during extended underwater use.
- Automatic Movement with Caliber 4R35: Powered by Seiko’s in-house 4R35 automatic movement, this watch delivers reliable timekeeping without the need for a battery. The self-winding mechanism charges with the natural motion of the wearer’s wrist.
- Hardlex Crystal: The watch face is protected by Hardlex crystal, a scratch-resistant material known for its clarity and durability, ensuring long-term visibility and protection against everyday impacts.
- 23 Jewels: The movement incorporates 23 synthetic rubies (jewels) that reduce friction between moving parts, enhancing accuracy and extending the lifespan of the mechanism.

- Luminous Hands and Markers: Both the hour markers and hands are treated with luminous material, allowing for clear time reading in low-light or underwater environments.
- Date Display: A practical date window is positioned at the 3 o’clock position, adding everyday functionality without compromising the dial’s clean design.
- Uni-Directional Rotating Bezel: The bezel rotates in one direction only, a critical safety feature for divers to track elapsed time underwater and prevent accidental overestimation of air supply.
- Screw-Down Crown: Enhances water resistance by sealing the crown tightly against the case, protecting the internal movement from moisture and pressure.
- See-Through Case Back: Allows a view of the automatic movement in action, showcasing the intricate mechanics and craftsmanship behind the watch.
