Seiko Unveils Prospex Street Series
Now, with the launch of its Prospex Street Series Diver’s watches, available exclusively on www.seikousa.com first, Seiko has broadened the appeal of its professional tool watches.
“When you look at the Tunas of the past, these things were built to specs strong enough you could run a tank over them,” says Eric Hofmann SVP of Seiko Watch of America LLC. “The design was all about durability and ruggedness. So, we wanted to deliver something that was in that same vein of being durable, rugged and everyday but also fashionable. And this is where we landed.”
The new Street Series is based on the design of the 1975 original, with the same iconic outer protector, but it has been streamlined and is being presented in a variety of colors, perfect for today’s fashionable lifestyle. The watches retail for $450, which is a great price for such a versatile timepiece.
I can’t wait to get my hands on one to test. Watch this space for a complete review in the future.
Well done, Seiko!
