SEIKO PROSPEX BLACK SERIES LIMITED EDITION - SPB253J1

SEIKO PROSPEX BLACK SERIES LIMITED TO 5,500 PIECES

The SPB253J1, a play on existing Prospex 1965 Modern Re-interpretation models, which in turn are modelled after the 62MAS, Seiko's first-ever dive watch. The 62MAS is obviously a very important reference in the brand’s long and storied history and served as inspiration for a whole range of modern remakes in recent years

The Seiko Prospex Black Series L.E. SPB253J1 comes in a fully blacked-out stainless steel case measuring 40.5mm in diameter, and 13.2mm in height. The colour pallet mixes in beige, grey and orange, similar to the previous Black Series we’ve seen. It all remains very legible thanks to large indices and hands, with a good amount of LumiBrite. Power comes from Seiko’s Calibre 6R35 automatic, providing a healthy 70h power reserve. It’s worn on a brown textile strap and comes with a second one in black rubber. It is limited to 5,500 pieces.
