SEIKO PROSPEX – Men’s Diver Auto 1968 Bracelet Watch SPB077J1

Heritage Design

The design for this Seiko Prospex Diver Bracelet Watch is based on a heritage watch from 1968. Just three years after Seiko made their first divers watch, they raised the bar with a new watch on which their future divers models would be based. With a precision automatic movement, one piece structure, rotating bezel and water resistant to 200m, the 1968 divers watch set the standard.

Case and Bracelet

This Seiko Prospex version has 44mm case with similar contouring to the original watch. Consequently, this adds to the comfort of the piece. The bracelet has similarly been designed with comfort in mind and has a secure folding clasp with extender so that the watch can fit over a wetsuit.

Diving features

Water resistant to 200 m/660 ft the Seiko Prospex Diver Bracelet Watch has all the attributes you would expect from a professional Diver’s watch. The jet black dial and uni-directional turning bezel, provide maximum contrast to the hour markers and hands. Coated in Lumibrite, they shine out even in poor light. Additionally, a legible minute track is at the extreme edge of the dial and a date display at 3 o’clock is a useful feature. The dial is protected by a sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating to reduce glare and improve legibility.

Equipped with an automatic 6R15 calibre movement, the watch has a power reserve of approx. 50 hours. The Seiko Prospex Diver Bracelet Watch is a must for anyone looking for a well-made automatic Diver’s watch with watchmaking heritage. For complete peace of mind, it is also covered by a two year manufacturer’s warranty.
