Seiko Debuts the 'Prospex Speedtimer Chronograph SRQO43'

— August 11, 2022 — Fashion
Luxury watchmaker Seiko has announced the launch of a special edition of its 'Prospex Speedtimer Chronograph' called the 'SRQ043' -- the most luxurious iteration of the piece yet.

The striking timepiece features a 42.5mm stainless steel case that houses a rich blue dial -- a Seiko signature hue. The blue dial provides expert contrast against the rest of the watch's coated stainless steel construction. Meanwhile, its strap comes a premium black leather, which serves to balance out the piece's design. In terms of power, the watch features a sophisticated 8R46 automatic movement, which delivers a power reserve of 45 hours and a magnetic resistance of 4,800 A/m.

Interested consumers can now purchase the Prospex Speedtimer Chronograph SRQ043 on Seiko's website and at select physical retailers.
