SCRATCHES ON CLASP, and case of the watch
The 43mm silver case of this Seiko 5 Sports SRPE75K1 model is made from polished stainless steel, which offers the wearer unparalleled levels of anti-corrosiveness, as well as ensuring greater shine longevity. Hardlex glass has also been used in order to provide further protection. There is also a non-screw down crown present besides the 4 o’clock marker, the crown guard has a brushed finish, which creates a subtle, yet satisfying, contrast between it and the rest of the polished case. Similarly, the black 120 click uni directional bezel is made from stainless steel too, it is complemented by silver increments. The outer edge of the bezel has been knurled which allows for easy grip of the bezel when rotating it. The case back is transparent, which allows the wearer to view the inner mechanisms of the timepiece.
The silver stainless Milanese mesh style steel bracelet of the watch radiates class. The history of the mesh style of bracelet can be traced by to the 13th century, when it was first produced as a form of armour in Milan. It is favourable because it is more robust than standard watch bands because it had no pins between its links and intertwined loops of its mesh made from stainless steel. However, a loss of comfort does not come at the cost of such peerless levels of robustness, as the design still allows the watch to sit comfortably on the wrist. It fastens using a deployment clasp.
The champagne coloured dial of the watch imparts an aura of luxury and sophistication. The subtle vertical brushed design of the dial underscores Seiko's attention to detail, it also emits a range of tones and colours when the sun glistens off of it. The dial it is complemented by the cream luminescent indices and hands, which allow for easy visibility at night. Similarly, the hour hand comes in a cathedral style, whereas the minute hand comes in an arrow style, both are filled with lume and have an elegant polished silver trim. The addition of the cream patina colour throughout the dial bestow a timeless feel on to the watch.
The second indices are positioned within the chapter ring which is another subdued, but pleasing, touch. A day date window replaces the 3 o’clock marker, this can be displayed in either English or French. The new Seiko 5 Sport logo is present beneath the 12 o’clock marker, whilst ‘automatic’ is displayed above the 6 o’clock mark.
