An addition to the new ‘Retro Colour Collection,’ this piece is inspired by one of our iconic heritage pieces from 1969: the ‘Checkered Flag,’ channelling vintage 1960s style.
As a re-creation of the 1969 piece, this model maintains the looks and petrol blue colour scheme. It features the same dial, 60s-style hands, and checkered bezel as the original. It also pays homage to the fan-favourite Seiko 5 Sports SKX case design.
Powered by an in-house built 4R36 automatic movement, accurate to +45 / -35 seconds per day it has a day-date feature at 3 o’clock and is water resistant up to 100m. This model has the words ‘SPECIAL EDITION’ on its caseback.
Seiko 5 Sports is known for over fifty years of reliability, durability, performance and value. ‘’5’’ represents the original five key features of every Seiko 5 still present today: Automatic movement, Day-date display, Water Resistance, Recessed crown and Durable case and strap.
