Flying the checkered flag

Seiko 5 Sports has delivered consistently high levels of reliability, durability, and performance. This dynamic watch offers current styling with a vintage feel, featuring an updated case and streamlined dial, while retaining the retro color scheme. Inspired by the vintage Seiko 5 Sports models of the 1960s and 1970s, this timepiece is framed by a checkered uni-directional rotating bezel, and finished with details like a day/date calendar, red-orange second hand, and luminous hands and markers.

The design takes its color scheme and bezel pattern from the "Checkered Flag," one of the most popular designs of the era. Providing automatic technology that you control with every movement, the 24-jewel movement, visible through the screwdown see-through caseback, beats at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour, with a power reserve of approximately 41 hours and manual winding capability.
