This November, Seiko Watch is excited to unveil a limited edition timepiece in collaboration with the renowned Japanese brand Porter Classic. With only 500 pieces available, the SART005 promises to be a coveted addition for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
A Celebration of Timeless Craftsmanship
At the heart of this collaboration lies a shared vision: to create a classic watch that embodies the exceptional skills of Japanese artisans while transcending generations. Katsuyuki Yoshida (Chairman) and Reio Yoshida (Representative Director) of Porter Classic have a profound commitment to producing items that resonate with both beauty and functionality. This philosophy aligns perfectly with Seiko Presage’s mission to honor and share Japan’s rich watchmaking heritage through exquisite mechanical timepieces.
Inspired by the Iconic Laurel
The design of the SART005 draws inspiration from the legendary Laurel, a significant milestone in Japanese horology. Released in 1913, the Laurel was the first domestically produced wristwatch, marking Seiko's pioneering spirit during the early Taisho era (1912-1926). The SART005 beautifully integrates features of the Laurel, capturing its simple yet distinctive aesthetic.
Striking Black Enamel Dial
One of the standout elements of this watch is its black enamel dial, crafted by the skilled hands of artisan Mitsuru Yokozawa. This deep, chic black finish not only enhances the watch's presence but also pays tribute to the elegance of pocket watches. The dial features a 24-hour subdial at the 6 o’clock position, reflecting the original design of the Laurel while maintaining modern functionality. Each Arabic numeral is meticulously reproduced in its original font, honoring the craftsmanship of the past.
Comfort Meets Style
The **SART005** comes with a specially designed cordovan pull-through strap, available in both black and brown. This slender strap is tailored for comfort and style, featuring more adjustment holes than standard straps to accommodate a variety of wrist sizes, making it suitable for both men and women.
Exquisite Packaging
To complement this remarkable timepiece, the watch is presented in a stunning two-tiered box inspired by traditional Japanese paulownia storage. Finished in elegant black lacquer, the box reflects the world of Porter Classic and embodies the concept of “layering” in Japanese culture. It is designed to hold both the watch and the replacement strap, making it a perfect display piece.
A Legacy of Excellence
The Seiko Presage brand is synonymous with over 100 years of watchmaking tradition, beautifully merging Japanese aesthetics with mechanical precision. This collaboration with Porter Classic further elevates its reputation, showcasing the beauty and quality of Made in Japan craftsmanship.
