The new limited edition is as faithful as possible to the classic sports design and compact dimensions that characterized the late-‘60s Navigator Timer. A distinctive five-row bracelet glitters to complete the watch’s classic and luxurious look.

On the dial, the Seiko logo follows the design of the original model and is lower in height than the current logo. The GMT, hour, and minute hands, as well as the indexes, also follow the Navigator Timer design.

The Curvex CX Piano offers a pure and graceful design. The collection features a clean and glossy black dial, where the entire elements have been removed, including the numerals, in order to accentuate the black laqué piano and the beauty of the piece.

The stunning dial, covered with 20 coats of translucent lacquer and 5 coats of coloured lacquer, harmoniously match the polished case. The hands feature pear shaped curves and are delicately orning the black laqué piano dial.

The satin strap enhances the comfort on the wrist and reinforces the sophisticated aspect of the watch through the black laqué piano aesthetic. With its perfectly curved case and unique contours, the Curvex CX Piano gives a great visibility to the dial by limiting the amount of material used on the sides.
