Seiko 5 Movement Custom Collection
The public voted on the designs of these four new Seiko 5 Sports models, and the results were fantastic! mens replica watch
Seiko's long-running 5 Sports collection, especially of dive watches, has countless variants and special editions in a wide range of colors and styles. There are very classic models with simple black or blue dials, but there are also more straightforward versions such as the Kosuke Kawamura SRPJ41 and SRPJ43 or series with camouflage dials. Now, for the second time in recent history, this is a collection of watches designed by the public and selected through a series of events held in Japan, Asia, Europe and the United States. The result is a surprising combination of limited editions that, despite being based on the exact same basic model, have gone in four distinct design directions. These are the Seiko 5 Sports Customized SRPK03K1, SPRK05K1, SPRK07K1 and SRPK08K1.
The Seiko 5 Sports Customized collection of watches is the result of activities organized by Seiko under the brand of the same name. People around the world were able to participate in four different activities and propose a new and unique Seiko 5 Sport Diver's Watch. This is the second time Sieko has done this, with 2020 being the first year. Each campaign is associated with a specific region, namely Japan, Asia, Europe, and the United States. Once the entry time has elapsed, a simple majority vote by the public will declare the winner for each region, which then goes into production. It's smart and fun and allows people to actively participate in the buying replica watch's design.
The designs of the Seiko 5 Sports dive watches are classic, even iconic, and all four are clearly in keeping with the main collection. That means you get a stainless steel case measuring 42.5mm in diameter and 13.4mm in height, with a mix of brushed and polished surfaces. One of the four watches stood out with a rose gold case and crown to win the championship in the Asian market. The unidirectional rotating bezel matches the case, but there are four different styles. Three show the classic lume points instead of the glowing triangles in the insert. In addition, the design of the inserts also varies with the diving scale. Japanese models have a silver insert with black graduations, European models have a black insert with silver and red segmented graduations, US models have a black insert with silver graduations, and Asian models have a wine red insert.
Like the bezel, the dial is what differentiates each of the four models. All watches feature the famous Seiko 5 Sports architecture, with applied numerals and hands coated with LumiBrite, and a day-date window at 3 o'clock. But as you can see, the colors are quite different. The Japanese model SRPK03K1 is the softest, with a silver dial of the same tonnage. America model SRPK05K1 shows off a pop of color with a bright orange dial. The European model SRPK07K1 luxury replica watches is a rendition of the classic black dial with gold-plated details. Finally, the Asian model SRPK08K1 is the most straightforward of the collection, with a sunray brushed gold dial that complements the case and bracelet. The dial is covered in Hardlex crystal.
Inside, we find the widely known Caliber 4R36 that powers the vast majority of Seiko 5 models. This automatic movement runs at 21,600vph and has a power reserve of 41 hours. It tells the time with central hour and minute hands and a stop seconds hand. The day and date dials are bilingual. The movement is visible through the Hardlex crystal case back, with a special decoration marking the winner of a bespoke competition.
