Seiko Rubber Strap Watches

A series of limited edition timepieces are to be released by watchmaker Seiko as a way of celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Grand Seiko standard.The collection will be limited to just 800 pieces, of which these will be divided up into designs using Spring Drive, mechanical and quartz features, Professional Jeweller has reported.Each timepiece will be marked with the fact that they celebrate a landmark for the company, as a lion emblem will be present on either the dial or, in the case of both the Spring Drive and mechanical products, the oscillating weight.Furthermore, consumers lucky enough to get their hands on these analogue watches will also be treated to a 72-hour power reserve and a second accuracy of between minus one and plus five per day.Seiko honoured the standard, which is celebrating its half century in the industry, by saying: "From the very first Grand Seiko watch in 1960 until the all-new 36,000 vph automatic caliber of today, every Grand Seiko watch has shared the functional beauty and design purity that are now its hallmark."Recently, Hodinkee reported that the whole range of products from Seiko, which also includes radio and digital watches, offer buyers elegance and a sense of craftsmanship.

Divers may want to take a look at a Seiko watch, which comes with a bright orange dial so that time can easily be viewed while swimming to the ocean bed.Dubbed the Sumo, the Seiko SBDC005 offers a "very nice" design, according to Watch Report, as well as an attractive finishing technique to the side of the timepiece and a smooth acting bezel.It is the orange dial which has caught the most attention of reviewer James Stacey though, which he points out that it "really pops, it is bright and rich and really makes this watch feel like a dive watch".Seiko has also made sure that this is a watch which can be worn no matter the extremity of a diver, as it supports up to 200m of water resistance.Recently, the watchmaker has unveiled the Ananta Spring Drive Moon Phase, which offers accuracy in measuring the time – thanks to 288 unique movements – as well as a practical moon phase indicator, Hodinkee recently reported.
