Seiko Prospex Tuna Automatic Black Dial Silicone Strap Men's Watch SLA042J1
Seiko Prospex Tuna Automatic Black Dial Silicone Strap Mens Watch SLA042J1
The Case:
The Dial:
This model features simplified indices making it easy to read underwater. Both these indices and hands feature Seiko's own luminous coating, which is called LumiBrite, to allow for easy visibility at night or the unknown of the ocean. Replacing the 3 o'clock index is a date window which uses the same colour scheme as the dial, a black dial and white markers. The chapter ring displays the seconds in standard line markers, again a simple yet effective style.
The Strap:
The accordion-style silicone strap combines high durability and comfort - a strap design invented by Seiko in 1975 as a practical solution to the expansion and contraction of a diver's wrist at different depths. A standard buckle can then be easily fastened to sit comfortably around your wrist.
The Functions:
Power to the watch is provided by an automatic movement. The calibre used in particular is a Seiko exclusive, called the 8L35. An automatic movement is powered by kinetic movement and once kick started should keep time due to the natural notion of the wrist throughout the day. Moreover, the calibre has a manual wind capacity whereby power can be supplied by spinning the crown. A power reserve of 50 hours allows you to put the watch and your wet-suit away for the weekend to come back to on Monday morning. 26 jewels all work independently to provide an accuracy of +15 to -10 seconds per day which is seen as a standard in diver's watches. Yet another feature of the movement is a stop second hand function which stops the second hand once screwed out. This allows for precision timing in crucial moments. Finally, the watch has a water resistance of 1000 metres, suitable for saturation diving.
