Limited to 4000 pieces this the the latest of Seiko 2021 Presage release commemorating its 140 years history.
A more desirable watch would be the Alpinist version, however it is sold out.
The Ginza district in central Tokyo has a special importance for Seiko. It was where the company’s founder, Kintaro Hattori, opened a shop selling and repairing clocks and watches in 1881, when he was just 21 years old and, today, Ginza is still where the company is located.
The Presage creation features the same cobblestone-inspired dial pattern and Komparu colour seconds hand, but the watch has the distinguished aspect of the recently released “Style60’s” design series inspired by the 1964 Seiko Crown Chronograph. The box-shaped glass, sharp hands and faceted indexes are inherited directly from the Crown Chronograph and create a retro feel that matches perfectly with the classic dial pattern. The opening at the 9 o’clock position allows the wearer to see and enjoy the beating of the escapement and the 24 hour sub-dial above it offers a different and useful way to tell the time.
Don't like the color? Same price from Myer for black open heart.
Breville sell watches now? Think you need to remove that "r" OP :P
