Seiko has added to its ever-growing Prospex collection with the all-new Seiko Prospex ‘Crystal Trophy’ Speedtimer watch.

This new timepiece is part of the brand’s Prospex Speedtimer Chronograph collection. It is equipped with a solar-powered chronograph movement, emphasising its role in Seiko’s professional timekeeping heritage. Throughout the 1960s, Seiko announced itself on the international sports timing stage. The brand developed a new generation of high-precision equipment that came to be endorsed by international sports federations. This association solidified the brand’s reputation as a trusted and reliable name in the horological industry.

The Dial and Movement
The unique glass blue colour of the dial is inspired by the crystal trophy awards given to athletes at professional sporting events. It features three black sub-dials that make up the chronograph feature alongside a date aperture. The silver hour, minute and second hands and baton indices are adorned with a luminous substance to ensure the dial can be read in the dark. A black tachymeter bezel frames the dial and anti-reflective sapphire glass protects it.
The watch is powered by an in-house solar V192 calibre movement. It is charged by both natural and artificial light, making it a dependable and eco-friendly choice. In addition, this movement is accurate to within +/- 15 seconds per month and also features a power reserve indicator.
The Case and Finishing Touches
In keeping with Seiko’s most popular Speedtimer models, the case measures 41.4mm in diameter. This case size makes an impact on the wrist whilst remaining comfortable to wear. A classic stainless steel bracelet secures this watch on the wrist. This traditional style makes the watch easy to style, allowing it to become a perfect everyday accessory. The watch is water resistant up to 100 metres (10 bar).
