Seiko 5 Sports SRPE51K1 Automatic Mens Watch
For more than five decades, Seiko 5 Sports has been delighting watch lovers around the world with an unbeatable combination of reliability, durability, performance and value. Now the popular collection is experiencing a renaissance with a new design concept and a wide range of models. Despite the fresh design, the new Seiko 5 Sports collection remains true to the core values and traditions of its predecessors.
The history of the Seiko 5 began in the 1960s, when the first Seiko Sportmatic 5 was developed in 1963. This watch was the first automatic watch in Japan to feature a date and day of the week display, setting new standards in the watch industry. The name "5" stands for the five main features that characterise every Seiko 5 watch: an automatic movement, a day-date display at the 3 o'clock position, water resistance, a recessed crown at the 4 o'clock position and a robust case and bracelet. These features, combined with innovative spring and shock protection systems, gave the Seiko 5 models their characteristic appearance and longevity.
1968 saw the launch of the Seiko 5 Sports collection, designed specifically for men and women looking for a durable watch for sporting activities. This collection built on the core values of the Seiko 5 and offered additional features such as improved water resistance, tougher watch glass and luminous hands and indices. The Seiko 5 Sports watches quickly became popular internationally and established themselves as versatile timepieces for all occasions. They were particularly popular with younger watch enthusiasts, as the models stood out due to their variety of designs and colourful dials.
The new Seiko 5 Sports collection stays true to the heritage of its predecessors and combines it with modern elements to offer watch lovers a unique and personalised choice. The stainless steel case houses the tried and tested Calibre 4R36, an automatic movement with a power reserve of around 41 hours. This movement is known for its reliability and longevity, making the Seiko 5 Sports an ideal choice for everyday use.
The watch is water-resistant to 100 metres, making it suitable for everyday wear as well as light water sports activities. The round case has a diameter of 40 mm and a height of 12 mm, so that it sits comfortably on the wrist. The mineral glass protects the dial from scratches and knocks, while the screw-in glass back reveals the mechanical movement. The functions of the Seiko 5 Sports include a date display and a day of the week display, both of which are positioned at 3 o'clock. The luminous hands and numerals ensure good legibility even in poor lighting conditions. The stainless steel bracelet with folding clasp not only offers high stability, but also an elegant look that suits both sporty and formal occasions.
With its long history and proven quality, the new Seiko 5 Sports collection continues the tradition of delighting watch lovers with timepieces that are both functional and stylish. The combination of tradition and innovation makes these watches an essential accessory for anyone who values reliability and design.
