[Home of Watches Brand News] There is no doubt that Seiko is one of the most produced watchmakers in the world. Every now and then, the brand releases a variety of new color schemes, special editions, regional editions, co-branded editions, and more. Today, Seiko has launched the new Prospex "Tropical Lagoon" Special Edition Turtle Watch (model: SRPJ35K1).
The new watch has a diameter of 45 mm and a thickness of 13.42 mm. The case is made of stainless steel, which is large, weighty, and reliable. In contrast, large diver's watches are more pure and do not sacrifice underwater performance for use on land.
"Tropical Lagoon", as the name suggests, this watch is designed for underwater use. The unidirectional rotating bezel references the aquatic landscape and is decorated in fresh blues and sea greens. The first 20 minutes are sea green and the last 40 minutes are blue, making it easier for divers to read critical time information.
For optimal readability, diver's watches are usually large so that the dial and bezel as well as the corresponding scales and hour markers are legible. The new watch follows this concept almost exactly, with hands and hour markers coated with a large amount of fluorescent material. The arrow-shaped minute hand has a sea green color and echoes the bezel. In addition, there is a day and date window at the 3 o'clock position.
This watch is powered by the entry-level Calibre 4R36 automatic calibre with a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour (3 Hz) and a power reserve of 40 hours. The watch comes with a stainless steel bracelet with excellent water resistance of 200 meters, and the price is 450 pounds, equivalent to about 3,700 yuan.
