When we look back at Seiko’s involvement in providing accurate time within the sporting world, we have the Japanese brand’s heart-shaped cam to thank for that. The Seiko chronograph would later go on to evolve with the introduction of the column wheel and the vertical clutch. Back in November 2021, Seiko launched some Prospex Speedtimer Chronograph watches, inspired by an earlier 1969 Prospex Speedtimer. The four solar-powered variations were equipped with a power reserve indicator and a 60-minute chronograph function. They take inspirational cues from the original 1969 Speedtimer watch, which was specifically developed for keeping accurate time for several sporting federations back then.

 

 

Influencing the four 2021 models, an option of a silver, navy blue, gold or black dial colour was offered. Furthermore, they featured an innovative 24-hour scale at 3 o’clock, a 60-minute function at 6 o’clock, and the aforementioned power reserve indicator integrated alongside it. The small seconds counter could also be tracked at 9 o’clock, whilst a date indicator sat at 4:30.

Alas, if you’ve already dabbled in these solar-powered Seiko watches and you’re ready to refresh your collection, you’ll be pleased to know that Seiko is releasing a new model, dressed in a striking deep green dial with black sub-counters. Its look is something of a new thing completely. Something really draws the eye towards its unusual colour combination. Pair that with the innovative features of this solar-powered chronograph watch and you suddenly have something quite hard to resist. The dial itself has been finished with an entrancing radial finish and its overall look conveys that of the original 1960s and 1970s Seiko chronographs. Let’s delve in a little further...

 

 

When the original Seiko Prospex Speedtimer 1969 was released, it was the first chronograph to feature the vertical clutch and column wheel mechanism. Both of these devices delivered significant improvements by way of their chronograph operation. The crucial qualities of the Prospex Speedtimer have always been its high level of readability and legibility. To enhance its dramatic and sporty appeal further on the wrist, the youngest Speedtimer Solar watch from the Prospex range features smooth polishes and fine hairline finishes upon its case, as well as a curved sapphire crystal glass front that compliments the beautifully engineered design of the bracelet.

The reference SSC933P1 is the most recent addition to join the Japanese brand’s Prospex Speedtimer Solar series. It measures a compact 39mm diameter and is crafted from stainless steel. Whilst inheriting the design language of the 1960s and 1970s, the new green and black model is resolutely modern too and has been primed for the young wrist with its many innovative features. The sapphire crystal glass piece secured to the front of the case has solar functionality, which enables any source of light to charge the battery. Once charged, the battery has a 6-month power reserve. If this wasn’t impressive enough, the Speedtimer Solar watch also has chronograph functions that enable you to measure elapsed time.

 

 

The mechanism inside the new Seiko Prospex Speedtimer Solar Chronograph watch is the Calibre V192, which promises an accuracy of around – 15/+15 seconds per day. Its stainless steel case is integrated with a water-resistant capability of 100 meters, keeping the movement free from water damage and other harmful factors. Designed to be practical, the clues in the Prospex name are clear – “Pro” for professional and “Spex” for specifications. All models from this collection meet the high standards expected of the series, making them great companions for sporty individuals and those who like adventure.

 

 

As mentioned, the display of the new Seiko Prospex Speedtimer Solar Chronograph has a rich green dial with contrasting black sub-counters that display the 24-hour counter, the small seconds and the 60-minute function. The 6 o’clock function also features a power reserve indicator next to it. Framing the entire dial is a rich black tachymeter scale for measuring speed based on distance. The hands and hour batons on the dial are also treated with a generous layer of Lumibrite to ensure they stand out during the night or whenever you find yourself caught in a dark environment.

 

 

The curved sapphire crystal glass front of the new Seiko Prospex Speedtimer Solar Chronograph watch is scratch-resistant, helping to preserve the quality of the dial for years to come. In addition to this, it has been treated with layers of anti-reflective treatment to rid the dial of any undesirable glare encountered when indoors or outdoors. The watch also has a screw-back case and is fitted on a three-link stainless steel case. The bracelet secures to the wrist comfortably and ergonomically thanks to a three-fold clasp with push buttons.
