Seiko 5 Sports Masked Rider Limited Edition Automatic – SRPJ91

Seiko 5 Sports, originating in 1968, has stood as a paragon of robust and dependable mechanical watches globally. Relaunched in 2019, it retained its core principles while infusing a youthful vigor. Now, on its 55th anniversary, Seiko pays homage to its 1969 collection.

This collaboration model revives the original Seiko 5 worn by Hongo, enhancing it with modern technology and design cues from Masked Rider 1. The dial mirrors the hero's iconic helmet, while the calf strap lining echoes his signature red scarf. The exhibition case back features the Tachibana Racing emblem, also found in the film's motorcycle and belt design, and is marked as a limited edition with a unique serial number. The watch arrives in a specially designed box with acrylic plates detailing its specifications.

Powered by Seiko’s 4R36 automatic movement, it has a 41-hour power reserve and a day/date complication. In the legendary Masked Rider tale, Takeshi Hongo, captured by the malevolent "Shocker," narrowly escapes brain remodeling to become the stalwart Masked Rider 1, defending the world against Shocker's sinister plans. Alongside Masked Rider 2, Hayato Ichimonji, the duo battle Shocker's monstrous forces, marking the genesis of the enduring struggle between the heroic Riders and the nefarious organization.
