The Seiko 110th Anniversary Prospex Save the Ocean timepiece is a celebratory watch designed with the brand's history in mind, while also keeping an eye on the future.
The watch maintains the look of the original version from 1968, but is modernized with a glacier-inspired finish and thus keeps a frosty appearance across the entirety of the accessory. The watch is built with a 200m water resistance rating and boasts a 41mm stainless steel case that holds the Caliber 6R35 automatic movement within. The watch has a 70-hour power reserve rating.
The Seiko 110th Anniversary Prospex Save the Ocean timepiece is finished with a braided Seichu strap that's crafted out of recycled bottles to give it an eco-friendly edge. Priced at €1,350, the watch is limited to 5,000 examples.
