Discover The New Seiko Prospex Marine Sports Collection: SUR605, SUR607 & SUR608
Seiko has once again expanded its renowned Prospex collection, introducing three stunning dress watches that seamlessly combine elegance and functionality. Designed for those who appreciate classic aesthetics and robust performance, these new models are housed in a refined 34mm stainless steel case, making them an excellent choice for active marine sports enthusiasts seeking a versatile timepiece.
The new Seiko Prospex models boast a sleek design with an 8.90mm thickness and a 40.80mm lug-to-lug length. The polished and brushed stainless steel case exudes sophistication, while the curved sapphire crystal provides superior clarity and scratch resistance. A smooth fixed bezel, a crown positioned at 3 o’clock with protective guards, and a screwed solid case back contribute to the impressive 200 meters of water resistance, a feature prominently displayed on the dial.
One of the standout features of these timepieces is their captivating mother-of-pearl dials, each adorned with faceted hour markers that double at the 12 o’clock position. These markers, along with the three-handset, are treated with Lumibrite, ensuring excellent legibility in low-light conditions. A domed minute track near the dial edges and an embossed Seiko logo at noon add further refinement. The collection’s insignia, subtly positioned at 6 o’clock, completes the sophisticated dial layout.
Seiko offers three captivating variants in this new Prospex lineup. The SUR605 features a pure steel case and a pristine mother-of-pearl dial, delivering a timeless look. The SUR607 model elevates the aesthetic with a blue mother-of-pearl dial housed within the same steel case, offering a striking yet elegant alternative. For those seeking a touch of luxury, the SUR608 stands out with its two-tone steel case and mother-of-pearl dial accentuated by gilt details.
Powering these elegant timepieces is Seiko’s reliable Caliber 6N01 quartz movement. This movement delivers exceptional accuracy of +/- 15 seconds per month and boasts a battery life of approximately three years. Its slim profile is a key factor in achieving the reduced height of the case, contributing to the watches’ comfortable wearability.
Each model comes paired with a matching stainless steel bracelet, equipped with a secure folding clasp for added convenience. The pricing reflects the thoughtful craftsmanship and premium features of these watches, with the SUR605 and SUR607 priced at £640, while the two-tone SUR608 variant is available at £710.
Seiko’s latest Prospex dress watches continue the brand’s legacy of delivering high-performance timepieces with sophisticated designs. With their compact size, elegant mother-of-pearl dials, and impressive water resistance, these models are a testament to Seiko’s dedication to innovation and craftsmanship.
