The re-creation of King Seiko KSK Limited edition of 3,000 marks the 140th anniversary of Seikos foundation and a re-creation of the second series of King Seiko, known as the King Seiko KSK, will be released in celebration of this landmark.DESIGNIn contrast to the gently rounded contours of the first King Seiko creation, the KSK case was strikingly sharp and angular and had a contemporary feel. Its flat surfaces and multi-faceted corners caught the light from any angle and gave the watch a new and striking brilliance. The cases durability is also enhanced by the super-hard coating which protects the watch from scratches.The sharp, bold faceted lugs feature large flat planes and razor-sharp angles and are Zaratsu polished to a distortion-free mirror finish.The new re-creation brings the 1965 KSK back to life in every detail.

The faceted and textured twelve oclock index ensures high legibility.The case back bears the same emblem as the original. And as proof of the limited edition, Limited Edition and the serial number IS printed.MOVEMENTEven with an automatic movement and the addition of a date window, the new watch retains its slim profile and is just 0.5mm thicker than the original, thanks to the thinness of Caliber 6L35. The eight-beat-per-second movement has 26 jewels and offers a power reserve of 45 hours.
