The One To Do It All? We Dive Into The Details Of The Seiko Prospex 1968 Heritage Diver GMT SPB519.

​@iloveSEIKO #Seiko #SPB519 #MONOCHROMEwatches Within Seiko's seemingly endless catalogue of watches, it's fair to say the brand has done pretty much everything. From very humble to ultra-complex and everything in between, either under their own name or with "King" or "Grand" in front of it, or even under the name of Credor, the brand's portfolio is impressively wide and deep. Arguably one of the most iconic collections is the Prospex series, built to perform in the harshest environments. While it first appeared on a dial in 2014, it goes back a long way, to Seiko's first-ever dive watch in 1965. With such a legacy to look back on, it's no wonder the collection remains popular today. Watches like this Prospex 1968 Heritage Diver GMT SPB519, for instance, perfectly demonstrate what it's all about. Inspired by the Automatic Diver Hi-Beat Ref. 659-7001 from 1968, it is a rugged yet stylish deep-dive watch with excellent legibility, an automatic movement and GMT functionality as a bonus! This, and more, in the full video.
