Bringing Traditional Japanese Woodblock to Life

Introduced in 1961 and in production until 1975, King Seiko became one of the Seiko's most technically innovative and stylish collections, noted for its sleek, dignified angularity. Newly updated with a 38mm case and upgraded box-shaped anti-reflective sapphire crystal, this streamlined re-creation includes a thin automatic 6L35 caliber movement with a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour, a power reserve of approximately 45 hours, and manual winding capability.

The dial of this special King Seiko uses unique texture and color to express the beauty of the maker's origins in Kameido, Tokyo – an area so fascinating that it was often depicted in traditional ukiyo-e woodblock prints from the Edo Period. A deep red gradation expresses the beautiful blooming of plum blossoms, which are cherished as a fragrant flower that heralds the beginning of spring.
