Driven by a 21-jewel automatic movement, this Seiko 5 Sports Automatic Mens Watch SNZG11K1 42mm has military feel to it with a blue canvas strap. In terms of the blue dial, the ever present Seiko 5 sits just below the 12 o'clock index with a day and date display taking the place of the 3 o'clock position. Working outwards, the watch accomodates 12 and 24 hour indexes to suit the needs of both. This blue dial is protected by a silver stainless steel case and hardlex crystal glass.

This timepiece has a water resistancy of 100 metres, meaning it can be used for both swimming and snorkeling but should not be subjected to any signifcant depths.

Key Features:

The Family: Seiko 5

The Seiko 5 family has set the standard in affordable, rugged and stylish watches since 1963. Designed to be simple but serious, the Seiko 5 is so-called due to its five key attributes: automatic winding, displaying the day and date in a single window, water resistance, a recessed crown at the 4 o’clock position and a durable metal bracelet. Released in order to meet the demands of the revolutionary baby-boomer generation, the Seiko 5 collection is just as popular to this day, proof that expert craftsmanship and elegant design will never go out of fashion.
