Seiko Men's Recraft Series Automatic Leather Casual Watch (Model: SNKP27), Emerald, Automatic Watch

Product Information

The 62MAS was Seiko's first diver, but following on its heels was 1968s 6159-7001. This was a chunkier, more heavy-duty diver. It gave us the design features that you'll recognise from later Seiko models. Technically, the reissue is an upgrade of the original. The water resistance is increased from 150 to 200M and the modern Seiko movement is an improvement. That's why this watch is top of my list. This watch isn't an exact homage to a previous model. Instead, it's influenced by Seiko's Crown Chronograph from 1964. But obviously, this isn't a chronograph.

But the watch is a legitimate diver and has 200M of water resistance. And the other specs are good too - they should be - this isn't an inexpensive watch.

As Japan's leading watch manufacturer Seiko has a long history of innovation. Seiko watches have been worn on the wrists of celebrities and were favoured by soldiers around the world. They made influential divers watches and were a pioneer of quartz and kinetic models.The case shape of this watch is unlike most of what’s on the market these days. More on that below. But the standout feature of the Seiko Recraft SNKP27 is the shining green and gold-colored dial. Even at this lower price tier, Seiko’s dial making skills are fully on display. There is plenty of detail to look at on this green and gold dial But it's the design that wins here. It's instantly recognisable and has been popular since the 1970s. This is an accessible way to get that retro-styling now. Surprisingly, the reissue is slightly smaller than the original. As a fan of smaller watches that is a plus for me. But at 42mm, this isn't a small watch. It's just more compact than the original This is a bold watch. A watch that doesn't hint at vintage inspiration, but goes all-in. It's also the most affordable watch on my list. Like many of the well-established watch brands, they've periodically reissued their best vintage models.
