Celebrate watchmaking heritage with this limited-edition Seiko 5 Sports timepiece, crafted to commemorate the 145th anniversary of Seiko's beginnings as a Tokyo clock and watch repair shop in 1881. Combining historic significance with legendary sports reliability, this model is a striking standout for collectors and daily wearers alike.
The captivating sunburst dial features a traditional Japanese colour known as ‘Edo Murasaki’ (Edo Purple), a refined shade from Tokyo's historic Edo period that symbolises hope for the future. This deep regal purple is beautifully accented by elegant gold-coloured logo detailing and a classic black unidirectional diving bezel.
Rooted in the iconic 1990s SKX series, this modern interpretation delivers the enhanced water resistance, strengthened crystals, and ultra-bright luminous markers that made the original design a cult classic.
For over 50 years, the Seiko "5" emblem has stood for an unwavering commitment to five core hallmarks: an automatic movement, a clear day-date display, robust water resistance, a recessed crown, and a highly durable case and bracelet.
