KING SEIKO MODERN RE-INTERPRETATION SPB287

King Seiko Modern Re-Interpretation. Following last year's successful recreation of the elegant dress/sport King Seiko of the 1960s, this distinctive watch re-interprets one of Seiko's most technically innovative brands, noted for its sleek, dignified angularity. A newly developed slim case and the thin 6R31 automatic movement, with a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour, a power reserve of approximately 70 hours, and manual winding capability, make this re-interpretation exceptionally slender and elegant, with a case thickness of only 10.33 mm. The rich red sunray dial is in "Garyu-bai Red," the color of plums that inspired Ukiyo-e artist, Utagawa Hiroshige and, later, Vincent Van Gogh, in his work, "Japonaiserie Flowering Plum Orchard." It features meticulously cut three-dimensional indices, including a separately carved 12 o'clock marker. Crafted of stainless steel, with the combination of mirror and hairline finishing characteristic of the original King Seiko, and the King Seiko crest on caseback and crown. Includes a box-shaped crystal with anti-reflective coating on the inner surface and a tri-fold push button release clasp. 10 bar, 100M Water Resistant.
