In 2026, Seiko will celebrate its 145th anniversary. The limited edition commemorating this milestone features warm gold accents, symbolizing success and prosperity. This limited-edition model’s dial draws inspiration from an intricate pattern that Seiko founder Kintaro Hattori arranged to have engraved on imported pocket watches in his company’s early era. The King Seiko model’s dial combines a finely embossed pattern with a deep gray gradient, creating a sense of depth and refinement while endowing the watch with the capacity to draw the wearer in for closer examination. The motif’s delicate beauty is further enhanced by a gold-colored logo, hands, and indexes, whose radiant contrast exudes elegance and sophistication. This watch draws inspiration from the King Seiko 45KCM, born in 1969. The watch houses an automatic movement in an exceptionally slim case paired with a multi-row bracelet crafted for superior comfort and wearability. The case back features an engraved brand mark inspired by the King Seiko “shield” emblem from the 1960s. As a mark of exclusivity, each timepiece’s case back is engraved with “LIMITED EDITION” and an individual serial number – an enduring testament to its rarity and prestige.
