Seiko Prospex 1965 Heritage Diver’s SPB501J1 PADI Special Edition Automatic Men's Watch

€1,950.00

The Seiko Prospex SPB501J1 is a stunning tribute to Seiko’s first-ever diver’s watch from 1965, reimagined as a special edition created in collaboration with PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors). Combining Seiko’s legendary dive watch heritage with modern engineering, this exceptional timepiece features a captivating emerald green gradient dial inspired by the shimmering light and rippling surface of the ocean as seen from beneath the water.

Crafted for adventure, the SPB501J1 features a durable stainless steel case with super-hard coating, a unidirectional rotating bezel, screw-down crown, and impressive 300 metres of water resistance, making it suitable for professional diving. The curved sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating provides excellent clarity and durability, while LumiBrite-coated hands, indexes, and bezel ensure outstanding visibility in low-light conditions.

Powered by Seiko’s in-house Calibre 6R55 automatic movement, the SPB501J1 offers both automatic and manual winding, a generous 72-hour (3-day) power reserve, and a stop seconds function for precise time setting. The watch is presented on a stainless steel bracelet with a micro-adjustable clasp and includes an additional green fabric strap made from recycled fishing nets, reflecting Seiko’s commitment to innovation and sustainability.

A true collector’s piece, the Seiko Prospex SPB501J1 PADI Special Edition combines Japanese craftsmanship, professional dive capability, and a unique ocean-inspired design, making it an exceptional choice for watch enthusiasts and adventure seekers.
