36.1mm stainless steel case, 6R51 automatic movement, red dial, stainless steel bracelet with interchangeability.
From the King Seiko Collection. First introduced in 1961, King Seiko became one of Seiko’s most technically innovative and stylish brands, noted for its sleek, dignified angularity. Paying tribute to the iconic original with updated styling and technology, this distinctive timepiece, in a sleek smaller case size, draws inspiration from 1960’s Tokyo fashion, during the same decade when King Seiko was making its mark in Japan. Evoking the “Ivy” aesthetic and colour scheme, popular during the era, this timepiece offers a bold burgundy dial with retro beige LumiBrite hands and markers and is topped by a box-shaped sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on the inner surface. The 24-jewel automatic movement, with an exceptional power reserve of approximately 72 hours, beats at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour and provides manual winding capability. Crafted of stainless steel, with the combination of mirror and hairline finishing characteristic of the original King Seiko models, this superbly wearable watch features the King Seiko crest on the crown and screw-down case-back and includes a bracelet with two levers on the end-piece that can be pressed for easy removal and a deployment clasp with push button release. 10 bar, 100M Water Resistant.
In 1965, four years after the birth of the first King Seiko, a series known as the King Seiko KSK was created. It was this design that forever defined the character of the collection, with its sharp, angular case and high functionality. Featuring a combination of a beautifully-finished dial with faceted indexes and broad, razor-edged hands, modern re-interpretations of the KSK offer a refined and striking presence. The twelve o’clock index is more than twice the width of the others and has a patterned texture specially crafted to ensure high legibility and to give the dial a bright sparkle that invites the eye. The bold, uniquely shaped lugs have sharp angles and wide flat surfaces that showcase both mirror and hairline finishing, creating a sense of precision. An artful melding of proportions, design, and functionality results in watches capable of moving gracefully from relaxed to formal situations and everywhere in between.
