Based on Seiko’s world-renowned SNXS sports watch
This new Seiko 5 series was developed around the concept of everyday carry (EDC), while retaining elements of Seiko's original SNXS sports watch, like the characteristic case shape and the small crown at the 4 o’clock position which doesn’t interfere with the flowing case shape. There are also various modern improvements, bringing a fresh evolution to this signature design.
The sporty dial features an orange seconds hand, which was used in many 5 Sports watches in the 1970s. The multi-faceted hour and minute hands reflect light while imparting a strong presence. Lumibrite is applied on the upper surface of the 11 bar indexes and the hour and minute hands.
The case’s low center of gravity ensures a more comfortable fit, and contrasting hairline and mirror finishes contribute to a sense of stylishness while exuding high quality. The newly developed metal bracelet gives a classical impression that is both new and nostalgic.
