Seiko 5 Sports SKX-SNZH5 Blacktone Redux 42mm Black Dial Steel Bracelet Watch | Fraser Hart

Throughout the 2000s, the SNZH5 series of Seiko 5 watches were a cult-classic amongst Seiko fans. Inspired by the original SNZH5 range, these classics have been renewed in a modern SKX style. This SNZH5 redesign retains the style of the original but with the glossy appearance of the latest Seiko 5 pieces. This modernised design rejuvenates the blueprint: a hardlex top surface on the bezel and a metallic coating between the bezel and the glass add shine, the minimalised black dial features indices with engraved with finely grooved lines. The bracelet’s solid links remains the same, with signature horizontal polishing on its centrepieces. Renowned for its performance and reliability, Seiko’s inhouse 4R36 automatic movement powers the watch and it is an automatic calibre with manual-winding ability, convenient hacking-seconds function and quick date change facility showing both the day of the week and date of month. With a 41-hour power reserve and 24 jewels, it beats at 21,600vph and has both a good level of anti-shock and anti-magnetic protection for peace of mind. Built to last and backed by Seiko’s trusted global service centre network with a 2 year guarantee, this watch will provide a lifetime of reliable service and pleasure for the owner. Seiko 5 Sports is known for over fifty years of reliability, durability, performance, and value. ‘’5’’ represents the original five key features of every Seiko 5 still present today: Automatic movement, Day-date display, Water Resistance, Recessed crown and durable case and bracelet.
