Prospex is a combination of the words ‘Professional’ and ‘Specifications’: this timepiece is designed to be practical, reliable, and durable within extreme or everyday environments, for experts, sports lovers, and adventure seekers alike. Boasting a 43mm steel case, a black dial, date window, and LumiBrite hands and indexes, the blue/red bezel really stands out. It is 200m water resistant. The Seiko Prospex Solar SNE591P1 features a stainless steel case that measures 42.8mm in diameter. The case has been treated to a brushed finish and it features a bi-colour ‘Pepsi’ style red/blue unidirectional rotating bezel, which displays a white 60-minute countdown scale. The bezel walls are coined, which allows for the bezel to be easily rotated. On the side of the case, there is a screw-down crown at 3 o’clock that is flanked by a crown guard to prevent it from being knocked out of place. Sapphire crystal glass offers superlative levels of protection against scratches and shattering. The design of the black dial is uncomplicated and atypical of a classic dive watch. The simplistic layout of the dial ensures maximum legibility; around the edge of the dial are highly visible baton-style indices that have been filled with Seiko’s Lumibrite material, which allows the dial to be read in the dark. A date-display window is located beside the 3 o’clock marker. Surrounding the hour markers is a 60-minute scale, which is located on the dial’s chapter ring. Extending out from the centre of the dial are the syringe (minute) and arrow (hour) hands, which are also filled with Lumibrite. The second hand is presented in a striking red tone. The bracelet is made from stainless steel and it comes fashioned in a classic three-link oyster style. The simplistic design of the oyster bracelet was first introduced by Rolex in 1948, and it has since been closely associated with sports watches, due to their utilitarian character that ensures the bracelet remains secured to the wrist during sporting activities. The three-fold clasp, with a secure lock, also helps to ensure that the watch remains securely fastened to the wearer’s wrist. Seiko’s V147 solar-powered movement has an accuracy of +/- 15 seconds per month. It offers a water resistance of up to 200 metres, which permits the wearer to wear the watch when diving.
