Description
Seiko has introduced a new Seiko5 Sports line, based on the watch case of the famous SKX007. Some differences: 10atm, see-through case back, 4R36 movement, many colours available. Due to some technical differences, it is NOT POSSIBLE to change this model into a 20atm diver!
The sports-line with the 42mm SKX-cases is getting colourful models almost every week. This SRPK13 is one of the new line with a heavy retro-vibe. The SRPK09,-11, -13 and -17 take us back to the Seiko Sports from 1968 and 1969! The SRPK13 has beautiful sunburst black/charcoal dial with a retro multi-coloured dial ring, simple index-markers and classic hands, with a nice classic style orange second hand. The window around day/date has been copied from the old style ones, the shape is correctly done. The bezel insert has a sports design AND is has a lume pip!
The steel oyster bracelet has solid links with split pens, a double-lock clasp (4 adjustment holes) and feels nice and solid. It has folded end pieces, with shoulderless push pins. The lugs are drilled through, so it is easy to press in the push pins and change the bracelet. The glass is single domed and has a much smalled beveled edge than the SKX glass has, very nice!
It is really easy to modify this watch, almost every modification-part that is made for the SKX007 will fit, except for the crown, the SKX-crown will not fit because it needs a wider hole in the watch case. The bracelet needs to have different end-pieces than the SKX-bracelets, because of the use of standard width push pins and sligthly different holes positions.
| If you want to have sapphire installed, please add the desired sapphire to the order! So with sapphire install, be sure to add the sapphire as a separate product to your order ! The bezel insert is flat, so do not choose one of the stepped sapphires unless you have a sloped bezel insert that you are going to put in the watch. |
| This watch is delivered in a special silver/gray Seiko Sports watch box. |
There is a very nice Solid Jubilee available for this model!!
