Seiko Readies for Its 140th Anniversary With New SRPG47 Seiko 5 Sports Watch
With 11,000 pieces made, there will be enough for everyone.





Seiko preps for its 140th anniversary with the release of a “limited” watch from the bang-for-buck Seiko 5 Sports range.
While this is called a limited-edition, reports indicated that there will be some 11,000 of these released. The number is high, but that just means more fans will be able to get their hands on this white dial-blue bezel combo timepiece. This ref. SRPG47 Seiko 5 sits at 42.5mm on the wrist and features a nice textured dial, and retains the Seiko 5’s (albeit toned-down) signature traits: automatic winding, crown at 4 o’clock, robust case, water resistance, and a day/date display.
Priced at $295 USD, look for these to drop in June.
