Seiko 5 Sports Men's Automatic Watch SRPL83K1 Blue 42.5mm

The 5 Sports Blue: 42.5 mm case, 4R36 hack & manual winding caliber

Collection

The Seiko SRPL83K1 belongs to the Seiko 5 Sports collection, re-launched in 2019. Compared to the classic Seiko 5, the new generation incorporates the 4R36 caliber with hacking (stop seconds) and manual winding, an exhibition case back, 100m water resistance, and an interchangeable strap system. The case measures 42.5 mm.

Case

The case of the Seiko SRPL83K1 is made of stainless steel, with a diameter of 42.5 mm and a thickness of 13 mm. The unidirectional rotating bezel allows for precise measurement of dive times. The protection of the Blue dial is ensured by a Hardlex glass, Seiko's proprietary treatment for light scratches. The case back is exhibition (transparent), allowing observation of the movement in operation. The water resistance is 100 m, sufficient for swimming and snorkeling. The hour markers and hands are coated with LumiBrite, Seiko's luminescent material for prolonged nighttime readability.

Movement

The Seiko SRPL83K1 is powered by the automatic caliber 4R36, offering a power reserve of approximately 41 hours. It includes hacking (stop seconds for precise time setting) and manual winding, two conveniences absent on the previous generation 7S26 caliber. The day-date display is positioned at 3 o'clock.

Strap

The Seiko SRPL83K1 is equipped with a stainless steel bracelet, both robust and easy to maintain, closed by a folding clasp, which facilitates putting on and taking off the watch by securing the bracelet to the wrist. The lug width is 22 mm.

Supplied with: Storage box, presentation pad, user manual.
