Description
The design of the SMGG17 is based on a quartz watch from 1982 (A829-6019)! The A829 was worn by astronauts who participated in the Space Shuttle flights (our own Wubbo Ockels wore a blue one). It was a practical watch because you can select functions by turning the bezel, very convenient because they wore gloves.
This modern SMGG17 has that same bezel-activation of the functions! The steel bracelet has beautiful solid links, only the end pieces are made of folded steel. The clasp has two adjustment holes, a clasp-extender (16mm) could be a smart addition.
Is delivered in the standard (huge) Seiko gift box geleverd. There is no instruction manual (all on-line at seikowatches.com), the direct link to the instrucion manual is in the Characteristics-table.
(the SMMG19, with black-red bezel, will be available in May 2026)
