Points of Mention

This watch is sold with its original Seiko box and handtag but comes with no Seiko paperwork. The watch was purchased this year and is in great condition apart from 1 mark on the Bezel which is photographed.

The Watch

Seiko in 1965 created their first Prospex watch, the SPB053J1 is the recrafted version of that watch. The watch made of Stainless Steel has a screw-down case back and screw-down crown allowing the watch to achieve 200m ISO Diver watch Certification. The arrow hands and broad indices are coated with Seiko Lumi Brite. The black unidirectional bezel surrounds a curved Sapphire crystal with AR coating, giving the user complete assurance of durability. Inside we have the Seiko 6R15 Automatic with hacking and hand-winding, a 23 Jewel beating at 21600 BPH, up to 50 hours power reserve. The 43mm case is finely finished with sharp detailing along the edges of the brushed Stainless Steel.

The strap is made of Silicone for added comfort complete with a signed buckle and keeper.

Personal Note

What a seriously rich blue this dial is, the dial and bezel play with the light so much and it looks incredible both on and off the wrist! Quite tough to capture in a photograph, so be sure to see one in person or just buy this one!
