Seiko 5 Sports Mooneyes SRPL39: A High-Octane Watch Collaboration
Seiko has teamed up with the renowned US custom car parts brand Mooneyes for an exciting collaboration in the Seiko 5 Sports series. This limited-edition timepiece, restricted to just 1,500 pieces, embraces the signature yellow hues and eye-catching logo of Mooneyes, making it a must-have for collectors and automotive enthusiasts alike.
Crafted in a robust stainless steel case inspired by the iconic SKX design, the watch measures 42.50mm in diameter, 13.40mm in thickness, and 46mm in length, offering a polished and brushed finish. The unidirectional bezel takes inspiration from racing cars and features an acrylic material with an internally printed design, creating a glossy effect reminiscent of clear automotive paint. Enhancing its sporty aesthetics, the watch includes a fluted crown positioned at 4 o’clock, flanked by crown guards for added protection. The screwed open case back features a striking yellow clear glass insert with the Mooneyes logo, while the timepiece boasts a solid 100-meter water resistance.
The vibrant yellow dial stands out with a transparent print of the Mooneyes logo repeatedly overlaid, delivering a bold and dynamic visual appeal. Applied baton hour markers and hands filled with Lumibrite ensure optimal legibility in low-light conditions, while a contrasting black minute track rehaut and a red center seconds hand add to the watch’s sporty appeal. Positioned at 3 o’clock, a black day-date window enhances functionality, while the embossed black Seiko 5 Sports logo at 12 o’clock is complemented by the Mooneyes logo prominently printed at 6 o’clock.
Powering this timepiece is the reliable 24-jewel Caliber 4R36 automatic movement, operating at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour and delivering a power reserve of up to 41 hours.
The watch is presented on a sturdy 3-link stainless steel bracelet with a folding clasp, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit. Adding to its versatility, the package includes a special yellow and black striped nylon strap adorned with the Mooneyes logo, offering an alternative styling option. Packaged in a unique collector’s box, this collaboration between Seiko and Mooneyes merges watchmaking expertise with the spirit of automotive customization, making it a standout.
