The Watch
.
Back in July 2020, Seiko released the SLA037 in celebration of the 55th Anniversary of the first diver Seiko released, the 62mas, in 1965.
.
This Celebration model was limited to only 1100 pieces by Seiko and they really did bring the 62mas into the 21st Century with a case size of 39.9mm,
Sapphire crystal and screw-down crown. The calibre 8L55 movement has 37 jewels, 55 hours of power reserve, 36,000 bph, manual winding and a hacking function. Pretty impressive.
.
This particular SLA037 is number 903/1100 and is lightly worn, it is in lovely pre-owned and is accompanied by its complete full set and a genuine stainless steel Seiko bracelet that was purchased from Seiko on Bond Street, London.
