A '60s reboot: Seiko Prospex Land Mechanical GMT Limited Edition

The new model is a faithful re-creation of Seiko’s archival 1968 model, the brand’s first GMT with a rotating bezel. Retaining the original’s classic sports design and compact dimensions, this limited edition is powered by the three-day power reserve Caliber 6R54.

F

or its latest watch, Seiko Prospex has re-created the model from 1968 that was Seiko’s first GMT to feature a rotating bezel. The new limited edition is as faithful as possible to the classic sports design and compact dimensions that characterised 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. With its independently adjustable GMT hand and 24-hour rotating bezel, this handsome traveler’s watch displays the time in three places at once.

The case back bears a horseshoe-shaped design similar to the original model and displays the individual watch’s serial number.
