SEIKO Prospex SUN045 Kinetic GMT 50th Anniversary Divers

The SEIKO Prospex SUN045 Kinetic GMT 50th Anniversary Divers Mens Watch is clearly a Seiko, and draws inspiration from many of its famed dive watch designs. The case is very much in the style of the classic “Tuna,” and the dial melds a range Seiko dive watch designs from the last 40 years. The SEIKO Prospex SUN045 Kinetic GMT 50th Anniversary Divers Mens Watch has a personality all to its own.

The most notable detail about the SEIKO Prospex SUN045 Kinetic GMT 50th Anniversary Divers Mens Watch is the deep three-dimensionality of the dial. In addition to the normal hands you’d expect on a dive watch, this timepiece is a GMT. Thus, there is a fourth hand on the dial used for second time zone which makes this not only a good sports watch, but a good travel sports watch.

The case is water resistant to 200 meters and has an AR-coated sapphire crystal over the dial. The rotating bezel can only be gripped on certain parts like the famous Tuna. The SEIKO Prospex SUN045 Kinetic GMT 50th Anniversary Divers Mens Watch is available in coated in IP black. Overall, case quality is pretty much what you would expect from a upper-mid-range Seiko diver, though it is uncommon to see a Seiko dive watch with a Kinetic movement that is this elaborate.

In steel, the case is a full 47.5mm wide. That is part of the appeal, and it wears nicely, going along with the traditional large size of the Tuna-style Seiko diver watch cases.
