Seiko Presage SRPG05-J1 Blue Automatic Watch
"A Classic Masterpiece based on 60's design"
The Seiko Presage SRPG05-J1 is a stunning addition to Seiko's renowned Presage collection, blending traditional craftsmanship with modern elegance. Here's a closer look at what makes this timepiece a beautiful watch for anybody looking for a watch that would look classy in the office or out to lunch
Design and Aesthetics
The SRPG05-J1 features a captivating blue dial that exudes sophistication and charm. The sunburst pattern on the dial catches the light beautifully, contrasting with the silver hands and matching applied hour markers. The watch is encased in stainless steel, providing a robust yet refined look.
* This is the most popular watch to date from the elegant Presage range from Seiko and a must-have piece for any collection
The sleek, polished finish of the case adds contrast to the brushed stainless steel links of the bracelet and only add to its overall elegance. The bezel colour matches the dial, with subtle pale-cream gold numeric inserts, matching the lume colour inserts on the dial.
Movement and Accuracy
At the heart of this watch is the reliable Seiko 4R35 automatic movement, known for its precision and durability. With a power reserve of approximately 41 hours, this Presage model ensures you stay on time, even if you don't wear it every day. The movement is visible through the exhibition case back, allowing you to admire the intricate mechanics in action
Features and Functionality
The SRPG05-J1 is not just about looks; it's practical too. The highly legible dial includes a date display at the 3 o'clock position, protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and the hands and hour markers are luminous, although it's not the brightest we've ever seen. The watch is water-resistant up to 100 meters so you don't need to worry about getting it wet.
Comfort and wearability
Seiko have vast experience at watchmaking and know how to make a comfortable watch. The bracelet is adjustable and fits snugly on the wrist, while the deployment clasp ensures a secure fit. Solid links give it a robust build, yet the watch is surprisingly lightweight, making it comfortable for all-day wear. The bracelet is easily swappable too, perfect since we think this piece would also suit a leather strap very well.
Summary
Even from a company that has produced literally thousands of watches over the years, this is one of their best looking timepieces of all. The Seiko Presage SRPG05-J1 might not have a name that rolls off the tongue, but it is a perfect blend of style, functionality, and craftsmanship and is guaranteed to impress with its timeless design and reliable performance. It's more than just a watch; it's a statement of elegance and sophistication.

Why Hardlex crystal?
Seiko's proprietary Hardlex crystal is a tough mineral crystal designed to withstand impacts and high pressure, which is why it is often used in dive watches. While not quite as scratch resistant as sapphire, it is much less brittle and therefore far less likely to crack or smash on impact.
Do not underestimate Hardlex, it is still extremely durable and I have been wearing a Seiko watch for 7 years with a Hardlex glass which is still completely unmarked.
