Seiko 5 Sports SNXS Classic ‘Rinse blue’ Blue Dial Steel Bracelet Men's Watch SRPK87K1

The Case:

The Seiko 5 Sports SNXS "Rinse Blue" SRPK87K1 is built with a brushed stainless steel case measuring 37mm in diameter. This sporty yet classic watch has a fixed bezel and a recessed crown for adjusting the time that pops out slightly and pushes back in at the 4 o'clock position. It has a hardlex crystal glass that's curved slightly, adding to the watch's vintage feel.

The Dial:

The dial features hands and hour markers filled with Lumibrite for enhanced nighttime legibility. The hands and markers are diamond-cut, with multiple facets for improved light reflection, and outlined with thin grooves. The background is a deep blue colour, described as "rinse blue." The hands are baton-style, meaning wider and non-triangular, for a more retro look. The second hand stands out in orange, reminiscent of classic 1970s designs. A metal ring surrounds the dial, matching the bracelet's finish which combines polished and brushed textures.

The Bracelet:

Completing the retro look, a classic 3-link oyster bracelet secures the watch. This robust design offers comfort and durability, mirroring the dial ring's polished and brushed finishes for a cohesive aesthetic.

The Functions: 

The watch is powered by Seiko’s in-house 4R36 automatic movement, known for its reliable timekeeping. This calibre delivers accuracy within +45/-35 seconds per day and offers a 40-hour power reserve, ensuring it keeps ticking even after you take it off for the night. It is also 100m water resistant, which means it can be used when snorkelling.
