What stands out in this watch:
- 2,500 pieces from Seiko’s 135th Anniversary and Seiko Astron’s 5th Anniversary Limited Edition collection.
- Celebrating the 2017 5th anniversary of the release of the GPS Solar Astron, this limited edition is truly a sight to behold. Machined from bright titanium, with a wide aperture dial ringed in ceramic for the best GPS reception, this watch is limited to 2,500 pieces worldwide.
- Using the impressive GPS timekeeping feature, this watch has the capability to access 4-6 satellites in Medium Earth Orbit simultaneously to ensure the time is correct down to less than 1 second in 100,000 years.
- For a completely self-contained timepiece, the SSE117J1 is also solar powered, ensuring complete autonomy with no need to change the battery. The solar cell is charged by any light, but best in sunlight.
- The world time display allows for near instantaneous shifting to a different timezone. The list of available cities is accompanied by an inner display showing the hours’ difference from UTC.
- Deep slate coloured dial with both Roman numeral and round cut vivid blue sapphire hour markers for a stunning modern look, yet keeping the classic style.
- The outer bezel is a ceramic composite and gives the widest aperture available for the best signal for the GPS timekeeping feature. Ceramic is a wonderfully scratch resistant material, ensuring a perfect looking watch for as long as possible.
- The blue back-tinted Sapphire crystal is perfect to survive the stresses of daily life. Highly scratch resistant, Sapphire crystal is measured at 9H on Mohs Hardness Scale, able to resist scratches from all but Diamond.
More features:
