Seiko's first diving watch appeared in 1965. Equipped with an automatic movement and water resistant to 150 m, it proved to be a reliable watch for the members of the 8th Japan Antarctic Expedition in 1966. The model received extremely high marks from the team and laid the foundation for the creation of the iconic watch of 1968 with improved functionality and water resistance of 300 m.
It is their modern interpretation that is the new limited edition Seiko Prospex. The model has joined the Save the Ocean series, which supports projects to preserve the marine environment. In addition, paying tribute to its history, the watch will be worn by members of the 63rd Japan Antarctic Expedition.
