Prospex Automatic Watch SRPG57K1

The Watch

The Japanese Maison Seiko is known worldwide for its design-forward, sport-inspired watches built for diving enthusiasts. Packed with cutting-edge technology, their models are the go-to choice for athletes and adventurers alike! Today, the brand unveils its latest Prospex Automatic Watch SRPG57K1 in the special edition "Save the Ocean". For years, Seiko has championed environmental causes - marine conservation in particular. The dial transports you straight to Antarctica, complete with penguins. This creation is housed in a round case with a brushed finish that gives it a stunning silver tone. Crowning the case, a delicate unidirectional rotating bezel in polished stainless steel adds a functional edge. Fitted with a tachymeter scale that measures the speed of a moving object, this watch is a must-have for athletes. Its distinctly masculine proportions hug your wrist perfectly - the case diameter is 42.4 mm. At 4 o'clock, the traditional crown lets you adjust the hours, minutes, seconds, and date. It is screwed down for superior water resistance. A solid Hardlex crystal sits above the dial, shielding it from shocks, scratches, and impacts. Developed in-house, this tempered mineral glass provides optimal protection. Finally, the screwed case back guarantees water resistance of 20 ATM.

The Dial

Get ready to dive into the heart of Antarctica with this round dial. Its sky blue-to-white gradient color will whisk you away to the glaciers - and you'll even spot penguin footprints! At the center of the dial, three arrow-shaped hands in silver indicate the hours, minutes, and seconds respectively. They sweep over bold bar-shaped indices that ring the dial, complemented by a minute track for precise timekeeping. The indices and hands feature Lumibrite treatment, so you can read the time in the darkest conditions. After just 10 minutes of exposure to sunlight or artificial light above 500 lux, it reaches peak luminosity and keeps glowing for up to 5 hours. A discreet dual window sits at the 3 o'clock position, displaying both the date and day. The Maison signs its creation just below the 12 o'clock index, with the collection name above the 6 o'clock index.

The Movement

This jewelry timepiece is powered by a Seiko 4R36 automatic caliber. Its 24 jewels drive the watch at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour. It displays hours, minutes, seconds, date, and day with an accuracy of -35/+45 seconds per day, across a 41-hour power reserve.

The Bracelet

Perfectly matched to the rest of the watch, the bracelet is crafted from stainless steel. Sporty and masculine, it features a single row of links for a timeless look. Durable and robust, the material also delivers all-day comfort. Secure and easy to fasten, the bracelet closes with an adjustable push-button deployant clasp.

Water Resistance

With a water resistance of 20 atmospheres - equivalent to 200 meters - this model is a true dive watch, no question. Our watchmaking experts agree: this timepiece handles showers, baths, lap swimming, freediving, and recreational scuba with ease, but it is not designed for extreme deep-sea diving, where pressure would eventually overwhelm its seals. For professional divers pushing serious depth records, we recommend looking at models rated 30 ATM and above. We also strongly advise against operating the pushers or crown while underwater to maintain a perfect seal.
