nano universe introduces a new Seiko watch that is designed with inspiration drawn from the limited edition Rolex Daytona model. Similar to previous models, the brand spotlights historic and impressive designs that honor the classic watch design to represent the growth and history of wristwatches.
The timepiece references the 60s, specifically the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona. This can be seen at the thin tachymeter scale, the reverse panda dial, and the pimp-pushers. Notably, there is a fine detail at the 3 o'clock position where a bright red print reading "CHRONOGRAPH" is found. The Seiko SZSJ005 timepiece is powered by an impressive 8T67 quartz movement and can resist water for up to 100 meters.
