Japanese luxury watchmaker Seiko has officially reintroduced its legendary 1965 King Seiko collection -- a line of sleek timepieces that at the time highlighted the brand's premium craftsmanship, helping to make Seiko a reputable name worldwide.
Titled the King Seiko Series, the revamped version of the old-school collection comes with five new timepieces that feature the same high-quality construction as the original models. More specifically, the new models were inspired by the 1965 King Seiko KSK and, therefore, come equipped with a 37mm case and a 6R31 automatic movement. In addition, the watches arrive with quite a few customization options for each piece. For example, all five watches come with five dial options to choose from and five leather strap variations.
