About Seiko SPB297J1 Prospex Save The Ocean Special Edition:
Seiko presents in the Prospex collection modern reinterpretations of three legendary diving watches that are inspired by the design of the glaciers and landscapes of the Arctic and Antarctic. Each has a sphere that evokes a different shade of glacial ice, from deep blue to white.
The 1965 diver's watch incorporated an automatic mechanical caliber and offered a water resistance of 150 m. The watch was designed for maximum reliability and readability in the harshest conditions. It proved its reliability when used in Antarctica during the 60s and paved the way for the development of future flagship watches. Actually, the SPB297J1 is with a 6R35 caliber and 200m water resistant.
The power and beauty of polar glaciers are perfectly captured in spheres with intricate patterns. The rich heritage of the 1965 diver's watch is represented in the deep blue color of the SPB297J1's dial.
About Seiko:
Follow your dreams and keep moving aheadis the philosophy of Seiko's founder: Kintaro Hattori.
Fascinated with Swiss watchmaking, he dreams of being a high-end watchmaker and at just 18 years old creates a watch repair shop in his own home in Kyobashi (Ginza district). Four years later he founded the company K Hattori for repairs and sale of second-hand watches. In 1892, he created the firm Seikosha ("house of precision") manufacturing his own wall clocks and created the first pocket watch, called "Time Keeper" in 1895 or the first Japanese-made alarm clock. In 1913 he created the first wristwatch called "Laurel". His dream of being a true watchmaker is a reality. But the Great Kanto Earthquake in 1923 destroyed everything. Time doesn't stop, it advances. Hattori started all over again, a year later he was remaking his wristwatch this time under the Seiko brand. He rebuilt the tower clock in Ginza, in 1932 symbolizing the rebirth of Seiko and Tokyo's own city.
Keep moving forward, step by step. Seiko has evolved into technology and the science applied to watchmaking. In 1969, Astron was the first quartz watch. In the 1970s, Seiko is looking for alternatives to quartz with solar technology and later will be the kinetic watch, direct drive movement, chronograph, perpetual calendar, GMT, Astron GPS Solar (2012), Diver's watches and their diving watches. In the late 1990s, they created the Grand Seiko collection with large mechanical calibers such as the 9S and soon after perfection with the Spring Drive system coupled with all these advances and more.
"Be always one step ahead of others" Kintaro Hattori, founder of Seiko
