Presage SSK041J1 Watch

The Watch

Seiko is an iconic watchmaking brand founded in 1881 by Kintaro Hattori. It has made its mark through distinctive models that combine robustness, elegance, and performance - embodying the brand's values of excellence and giving you a confident, refined style. Today, the manufacture proudly presents this magnificent SSK041J1 watch from its Presage collection. It strikes the perfect balance between refined and sporty, enhanced by a modern design and meticulously crafted details. Its round-shaped case is crafted in polished stainless steel, measuring 40.50 mm in diameter, 12.79 mm in thickness, and weighing 70 g. Designed for men, it sits gracefully on the wrist for ultimate comfort. It is topped with a "box-shaped" Hardlex crystal for optimal protection against shocks and scratches. At 3 o'clock, a finely knurled cabochon-style crown lets you adjust and wind the hands and date display at any time. Finally, this model features a screwed transparent caseback that offers a glimpse of the movement's inner workings and ensures water resistance of 5 ATM.

The Dial

The dial of this timepiece exudes a timeless, subtle, and utterly charming character. In a rich yellow color, it features a sunray finish paired with delicate grooves that form an intricate guilloche pattern. The result is mesmerizing - a distinctive touch that elevates any outfit. Hours and minutes are delivered by two elegant dauphine hands in silver. A sweep hand of the same tone tracks the seconds. The bezel reveals twelve raised indexes and a minute railroad track for precise timekeeping. A fourth yellow hand joins the display to indicate GMT time, shaped like a cocktail glass foot and pointing to yellow Arabic numeral indexes. At 3 o'clock, a date window keeps you on track with the day of the month. Finally, Seiko signs the dial with its name just below 12 o'clock.

The Movement

This watch is brought to life by a Japanese automatic movement - the Seiko caliber 4R34, renowned for its exceptional quality and flawless performance. Featuring 24 jewels and beating at an oscillation frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour, it delivers an accuracy of +45/-35 seconds per day while ensuring the perfect operation of the hands and date window. With a power reserve of 41 hours, it also incorporates a hacking seconds mechanism.

The Bracelet

This beautiful strap adds a refined, modern touch to the watch. Crafted in dark brown bovine leather, it lends the overall piece a timeless charm. Its embossed texture and matching stitching give it a retro-chic vibe. Easy to pair with any outfit, it brings polished style to every look. The lug width measures 20 mm and it fastens with a single push-button deployment clasp.

Water Resistance

With a water resistance of 50 meters, or 5 ATM in watchmaking terms, this timepiece isn't afraid of a little water - but it doesn't want prolonged contact with it either. You can shower while wearing it on occasion, but to preserve the quality and precision of its movement, our watch specialists strongly recommend keeping it away from H₂O in the bath, pool, or sea. In short: no swimming, no diving, and no extended immersion.
