Seiko Prospex 1968 Diver’s Modern Re-Interpretation GMT Save the Ocean
SKU: SPB439
Celebrating the power of the polar glaciers
The mission of Seiko Prospex is to protect the world’s oceans now and for future generations, and to secure this legacy for divers everywhere. To this end, Seiko Prospex supports various marine conservation activities through its "Save the Ocean" initiative. Inspired by Seiko's iconic 1968 diver, this Prospex Re-Interpretation GMT continues the traditions of the Save the Ocean series, which represents these conservation activities.
The new creation’s textured dial captures the power of the polar glaciers that shape the landscapes and seascapes of the Arctic and Antarctic. Accented by a light-blue GMT hand, the dial’s silvery-white hue and delicately striated surface create a unique depth that invites repeated looks.
This reference is powered by Seiko's latest manufacture 6R-series GMT calibre, wherein the GMT hand can be set independently in one-hour increments without interrupting the time-of-day hands and allows the wearer to see, at a glance, the time in a second time zone. As a Seiko Prospex diver, this watch is water resistant to 200 meters, has Lumibrite on the hands and all 12 markers, and features a unidirectional bezel with a luminous pip. It is presented on a new three-link stainless steel bracelet with a slim profile that allows it to sit securely and comfortably on the wrist.
