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

Product Information

I love the look of this watch. The hands are similar to the Alpinist, but the overall appearance is closer to Blancpain's 1950s diver. 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.

Beyond the dial, the SNKP27 case is a large part of what sets this watch apart from so many others. And part of what makes it so appealing. Or perhaps unappealing, to those who just don’t connect with the watch’s unique aesthetic. Not your average round watch It was at this point that Seiko built their debut dive watch. The name 62MAS comes from the watches features - an autoMAtic Selfdater. This Seiko Recraft model is a more affordable way to get a vintage-styled automatic watch. Rather than a 1960s inspired design, this model has a 70s vibe.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 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.
