Seiko Prospex 1986 Quartz Diver's 35th Anniversary Limited Edition
This new quartz model has an accordion-style strap that ensures that the watch remains tight on the wrist at every depth. The outer protector is made of zirconia ceramic, which is seven times harder than steel, further enhancing its resistance to shock. The strap is now of high grade, strong yet flexible silicone.
It’s built with 1,000m water and helium resistance that saturation diving requires, and incorporates the unique one-piece titanium case with outer protector structure that makes its shock resistance so exceptional.
In a 1200-unit edition, retailing around $3000, the Watch comes with several straps (but not the tools, sorry).
It’s fitted with Seiko’s proven quartz Caliber 7C46 which delivers a high level of torque so that it can move the robust and Lumibrite-coated hands. It also delivers a long battery life of 5 years.
As a new safety and design feature, the crown is marked with a vivid yellow “Lock” sign and an arrow to indicate the rotating direction. The winding stem is also in yellow so that the wearer can immediately notice if the crown is unlocked. The white hour markers stand out against the dark dial so that they are easy to read at depth.
Diameter: 49.4mm, Thickness: 16.3mm
