Seiko Luxe Presage Watchmaking 110th Anniversary Limited Edition White Enamel Dial Stainless Steel Case Brown Leather Strap 37.5 mm Automatic Watch - SPB359

In 2023, Seiko will celebrate the 110th anniversary of its first wristwatch with the release of a series of commemorative timepieces. The celebration starts with the announcement of a new creation that draws its inspiration from the 1913 Laurel. The new watch revives the form and design of the Laurel in every detail. The round case is carefully constructed to retain the elegance of the original while housing a modern automatic movement. The characteristic Arabic numerals, the retro-style blued hands, and a large onion crown are also faithfully re-created, in keeping with the nostalgic feel of this special timepiece. Just as with the 1913 original, the new creation features a pristine enamel dial. Its depth and beauty, as well as its lauded stable appearance over time, are made possible thanks to master craftsman Mitsuru Yokosawa and his colleagues at a workshop specializing in enamel production. The new creation runs on Seiko’s high-performance Caliber 6R27, which has a power reserve indicator at the nine o’clock position and a date indicator at six o’clock. The crystal is a boxed-shaped sapphire with an anti-reflective coating on the inner surface, delivering high legibility from any viewing angle.
