Seiko Prospex Speedtimer Automatic – SRQ047

The Seiko Prospex Speedtimer Mechanical Chronograph is a sophisticated timepiece designed for adventurers who appreciate a seamless blend of style and technological excellence. Drawing inspiration from Seiko's iconic 1972 Speedtimer "Panda," this watch features a newly designed stainless steel case with a super-hard coating, providing both durability and a sleek fit on the wrist. The multi-row bracelet, also with a super-hard coating, ensures a comfortable and luxurious wear.

Powered by the exclusive caliber 8R48 automatic movement, the chronograph function allows measurement of up to 12 hours in 1/8-second increments. The column wheel and vertical clutch mechanism ensure smooth and stutter-free movement of the chronograph hand. Additionally, the three-pointed hammer system guarantees instant and synchronized return to zero when the reset pusher is activated.

The dial boasts a silver background with contrasting dark gray subdials, a tachymeter scale, and an orange chronograph hand paying homage to the original "Panda" colors. LumiBrite hands and markers enhance visibility in low-light conditions, accompanied by a date calendar feature.

Protected by a dual-curved anti-reflective sapphire crystal and a screw-down caseback, this timepiece is water-resistant up to 100 meters. With dimensions of 14.6mm thickness, 42.0mm diameter, and 49.5mm lug to lug, it strikes a balance between elegance and functionality.
