TweetEmailSeiko continues to build amazing watches on top of their innovative new SpringDrive system.One of the latest is the Seiko Marinemaster GMT. I almost postednothing but a picture of this watch because I think the mere sight of it says itall: it is big, beautiful, durable, and simultaneously both modern and classic.I have an old Seiko titanium Kinetic Scubamaster which is one of my favoritewatches in the world, and one of the things I really like about this family of watchesis the amount of functionality Seiko packs into them. The Marinemaster has a 24-hourhand for tracking time in a second time zone, but rather than putting the hours forthe second time zone on the bezel like most GMT watches do, the numbers are actuallyinside the bezel, around the perimeter of the dial. This leaves the bezel free foryour standard dive time functionality, which means you get a GMT and a diver allin one. Of course, this makes the watch slightly less flexible purely as a GMT watchsince the hours are typically marked on the bi-directional rotating bezelso that you can easily check times in other time zones (rotating the bezel clockwisetakes hours off the second time zone while rotating it counterclockwise adds hours),however if you don't need the additional GMT flexibility, it's nice having the diverfunctionality, instead.Features of the Seiko Marinemaster GMT:Spring Drivemovement accurate to about 15 seconds per month or better with a 72 hour powerreserve and automatic winding. 24-hour hand for GMT functionality. Date.Power reserve indicator.Bright titanium construction with a screw-down caseback.Titanium bracelet with a double locking clasp and diver extension. Sapphire crystal.Water resistant to 600 meters (almost 2,000 feet).45mm in diameter, 17mm thick. The bad news is that you can't waltz down to your local mall to pick one of thesebeauties up (unless you live in Japan). The good news is that you can still get themfor about $2,950 from some Japanese retailers who are willing to ship to the US.

Worldwide recognized for the Quartz revolution, Seiko hasn't stopped amazing the world of watch manufacturing by introducing watches of the most sophisticated designs and equipped with some of the most innovative technical complications. Ever since its foundation in 1881, the Japanese watch company of Seiko has been developing mechanisms and designs which would definitely remain as landmarks of the watch *** tradition. One example of such watches is the Seiko Premier Kinetic Chronograph Watch, a timepiece that due to its amazing functionality and beautiful design has been included in Seiko's Collection "Landmarks in Time". Seiko has also a reputation for being the official timer of many sport events, as the brand has taken the social responsibility of a global brand seriously. Amongst these sport competitions we can mention: the World Cup in Argentina (1978), the World Cup in Spain (1982) or the World Cup in Mexico (1986). Supporting competition and excellence, Seiko is definitely a brand worthy of out attention.The Seiko Premier Kinetic Chronograph Watch features a 42 mm in diameter case crafted from 18k rose gold, a PVD treated su***ce for the dial and a black leather strap, hinting to a ***, elegant design. This luxurious watch is remarkable because apart from its outstanding design, it features one of the most progressive technical movements, based on Kinetic technology which doesn't require any batteries. The dial uses as a theme color a combination between black and gold, being equipped with many functions that are displayed quite tidy, providing extreme legibility. The chronograph function offers the power of 45 minutes, the dial providing at the same time a date function located at 6 o'clock and the traditional functions of hour, minute and second. The hour markers are Roman numerals and the hands are made of rose gold to match the bezel.If we were to talk about the technical movements proposed over the years by Seiko, we would have to limit our vocabulary to innovation, excellence and progressive craftsmanship. The movement equipping this Seiko Premier Kinetic Chronograph Watch goes by the name of 7L22 Kinetic Chronograph calibre movement, which was exclusively designed and manufactured by Seiko. The advantage of this movement is that it doesn't require any batteries to function, due to the Kinetic power that it generates. Although a futuristic timepiece in terms of technical performance, the new Seiko Premier Kinetic Chronograph Watch maintains a classy, yet contemporary look, characterized by sophistication and refinement. The Seiko Premier Kinetic Chronograph Watch is yet another brilliant timepiece on its way of writing history in watch manufacturing. Seiko Premier Kinetic Chronograph Pictures Gallery
