 Seiko Prospex the Black Series Limited Editions

The Black Series takes a fascinating step forward with a lineup of three new watches featuring a Lumibrite variant that brings a long-lasting bright green look to the hands and indexes. Because the color green is most noticeable in the dark, and because the deep gray color of the dials minimizes unwanted light reflection, these watches offer the highest degree of legibility in the dark.

In addition to their 'night vision' qualities, the watches in this series also have a water resistance of 200 meters. They feature sapphire crystal and offer a choice of designs tailored for divers and adventure seekers.

BIG FOTO Very popular since its inception and now in its third year of limited edition release, the Seiko Prospex Black Series was originally inspired by the mysterious world of night diving. The green lumibrite colouring on the markers and hands is designed for increased visibility in the dark world of the night seas, allowing time to be read clearly in dark conditions.

  • This practical compact diver’s watch with sapphire glass is conveniently solar-powered; the watch charges from both natural and electric light.

This specific design is inspired by Seiko’s 1965 Diver’s watch – Japan’s first ever Japanese 150m Diving watch, worn on Japanese Antarctic Expeditions until 1969.

  • This watch shape is nicknamed by Seiko fans as a ‘Samurai’ – because of its angular shaped design which looks as if it were sliced by a Japanese Samurai sword.

  • The name ‘Tortoise’ is inspired by the popular diving watch shape nicknamed by Seiko fans as the ‘Turtle’ because of its shell-like profile.
