Prospex 1965 Heritage Diver's PADI Special Edition

Prospex 1965 Heritage Diver’s PADI Special Edition. Seiko Prospex challenges every limit with timepieces created to exceed expectations, engineered with superior style and innovative technology for the sea, sky or land. Driven by a rich legacy that has set the standard for dive watch specifications and a heritage of iconic design, Prospex continues to keep going forward with precision timekeeping, crafted for the modern world. This exciting Special Edition celebrates Seiko’s first diver’s watch and the ongoing partnership with PADI, beautifully displaying a vibrant green patterned dial, reflecting the underwater view of waves on the ocean surface illuminated by sunlight. Framed by a coordinating uni-directional rotating elapsed timing bezel, the eye-catching dial offers a date calendar between 4 and 5 o’clock allowing for LumiBrite coating on the hands and all 12 markers, improving symmetry and legibility. With an impressive power reserve of approximately 72 hours, 3 full days, the 24-jewel automatic movement beats at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour with manual winding capability. Crafted of stainless steel with super-hard coating, this superbly functional timepiece includes a curved sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on the inner surface, as well as a screwdown crown and caseback. Following ISO standards for scuba diving to depths of up to 300 meters, the innovative creation preserves a streamlined case profile while incorporating a sleek bracelet equipped with a specially developed slide adjuster clasp with a double lock, allowing for easy size adjustment. Highlighting Seiko’s conservation efforts in collaboration with PADI, the Special Edition is presented with additional green fabric diver’s strap made from 100% recycled plastic bottles, braided with the traditional Japanese Seichu technique for exceptional strength. 300m Water Resistant
