All watches are powered by the caliber 8R series, the brand’s most advanced automatic chronograph movement for mechanical watches. This caliber incorporates both vertical clutch and column wheel mechanisms which ensure the precision and durability. The escapement is lightweight and strong, thanks to the use of MEMS technology which enhances the stability of the watch's precision. With the push of the reset button, the hands return back to zero instantly and in perfect synchronization.

This caliber is designed and hand assembled completely in-house by Seiko's most skilled watchmakers.

SPECEAL MOVIE

Original model

1969 Speedtimer
The new Speedtimer chronograph takes inspiration from the 1969 Speedtimer, an important landmark in the history of chronograph watchmaking. Applying the technology invented for Seiko's stopwatches, the 1969 Speedtimer was the world's first automatic chronograph with a column wheel and vertical clutch. These two devices made the measurement of elapsed time more precise and error-free than ever before. The new model is to be the signature of the Speedtimer series. It inherits the innovative technology of the original model while achieving further evolution as a time measuring instrument.

SPEEDTIMER

Dial

The blue and red colors inspired by the 1969 Speedtimer are applied so that elapsed time can be read accurately at a glance. The dial has vertical hairline finishing and as the angle of vision changes, the dial turns from navy to vivid blue. Every detail of the watch reflects the high level of precision and performance of the watch as a time measuring instrument. The outer dial ring and sub-dial are in white so they stand out prominently against the blue dial to enhance legibility. The chronograph seconds hand is gently curved by hand for precise time measuring.
Optional Strap

The bracelet can be replaced with a black leather strap whose stitching is designed to increase the strap's durability
