Seiko Astron 145th Anniversary Limited Edition 44.1mm Black Dial Watch SSH186

Seiko 145th Anniversary Limited Edition. Extending the legacy of the Seiko Astron, the world’s first commercially available quartz watch, today’s Astron is designed for a new generation of leaders to break through to a new future with excellence in both innovation and style. Commemorating Seiko’s 145th anniversary and the accomplishments of Seiko’s founder, Kintaro Hattori, this exceptional Limited Edition features a distinctive black and golden color motif evoking the mystical phenomenon of a solar eclipse, with light shining from the edges of the darkness. The black dial has a highly textured pattern inspired by the moon and is framed by a titanium bezel with a subtle gold-tone sapphire insert and a UTC dial ring with 1,4, and 5 in gold, a nod to the 145th anniversary. Available only in a controlled production run of 1,450, with the serial number engraved on each caseback, the timepiece is equipped with Seiko’s 5X83 caliber, offering both high-speed GPS dual time and time zone adjustment to 39 time zones and a chronograph function that measures elapsed time in 1/20th second increments. The precision watch also features an AM/PM indicator, daylight saving time function, power save function, perpetual day/date calendar correct to the year 2100, and a time transfer function that allows the user to switch the main time and dual time indications with the push of a button, all powered by light energy with no battery change required. In addition to the four subdials, laid out vertically for a sporty look, the dial displays a date calendar and LumiBrite hands and markers for enhanced visibility in low-light conditions. Crafted of light and durable titanium with black super-hard coating and gold accents, this superb timepiece includes a secure screwdown caseback and tri-fold push button release clasp with Smart Adjuster function. 10 bar, 100M Water Resistant
