The Seiko Presage Limited Edition timepiece has been debuted as a celebratory accessory that marks the brand's 110-year anniversary crafting premium watches and movements for brands. The watch pays homage to the brand's first-ever timepiece crafted in 1913 and thus features a nostalgic feel that stretches from the dial to the strap. The accessory features an automatic movement within -- the Caliber 6R27 -- to make it suited for the modern consumer needs.
The Seiko Presage Limited Edition timepiece has five-bar water resistance and comes with a leather band accented by touches of chrome steel for a touch of shine. Limited to just 2,500 examples on a worldwide basis, the watch is priced at $2,000 and will be available starting January 2023.
