The Seiko 5 Sports collection of mechanical watches first introduced in 1968, is often credited as the watch that got collectors into the game, not just because of the brand’s innovations, but the reliability and accuracy that you wouldn’t expect from an affordable line of watches. In 2019, the collection was relaunched with a new design, targeted to a younger audience and featured a diver’s aesthetic injected with a dose of cool.
The iconic watch has received another facelift in 2022 with the introduction of a GMT Caliber. The lineup includes three design variants offering a dial with a different color — black, blue and orange — and feature a rotating bezel in two colors to easily separate the night and day hours. The GMT hand has been equipped with a generous layer of lumbrite to ensure visibility in low light. Drawing inspiration from one of Seiko’s best-loved sports watches — the Seiko SKX series — each of the watches features an elegant jubilee bracelet, polished to create a contrast to the solid feel of the rows behind them.
