Seiko Prospex Diver's Save The Ocean' King Turtle 200M Mens Watch SRPE39K1

Seiko Prospex Save The Ocean ‘King Turtle’ SRPE39K1. The watch’s nickname originates from the shape of the case and its similarity to the shell of a turtle. An oversized screw-down crown sits beside the 4 o’clock position and is protected by a crown guard, which increases the functionality of this watch.

The ‘King Turtle’ edition is differentiated from the normal ‘Turtle’ with the addition of a unidirectional ceramic bezel with an interesting and practical machining on the bezel edge and an ultra-scratch resistant sapphire glass with magnified date window. The benefit of having a ceramic bezel is that it provides greater durability and scratch resistance than a stainless-steel bezel and will also retain its colour, unlike a painted bezel that may fade over time.

The dial of this special edition timepiece represents the view of the ocean as seen by the 5m deep vision of the Manta Ray endangered species. The shades of blue colour echo that of the gradations of sunlight refracted through the water at different depths. The dial is also finished with a fine texture pattern that symbolises the ocean waves. To showcase an almost 3D effect, 3 Manta Rays are subtly silhouetted on the dial as they would majestically pass by in the ocean if you were lucky enough to see them.

The case and bracelet of the watch is made from highly durable stainless steel with a fine ‘hairline’ brushed finish on the upper case, while the bottom of the case is beautifully highly polished to a mirror finish, the case is sealed to meet 200m water resistance and is ISO 6425 ‘diver’ rated, able to pass all of the requirements of the most serious of ‘tool’ watch tests.

Renowned for its performance and reliability, Seiko’s inhouse 4R36 automatic movement powers the watch and it is an automatic calibre with manual-winding ability, convenient hacking-seconds function and quick date change facility showing both the day of the week and date of month. With a 41-hour power reserve and 24 jewels, it beats at 21,600vph and has both a good level of anti-shock and anti-magnetic protection for peace of mind.

Built to last and backed by Seiko’s trusted global service centre network with a 2 year guarantee, this watch will provide a lifetime of reliable service and pleasure for the owner.
