Seiko 5 x Rowing Blazers x Wind Vintage Rally Diver 38mm & 42mm Watches Review | aBlogtoWatch

Are the new 2026 Seiko 5 Sports x Rowing Blazers x Wind Vintage collaboration watches a worthy successor to the original Rally Diver? In this hands-on review, Ariel Adams takes a close look at both the 38mm green (ref. SRPM21) and the 42.5mm blue (ref. SRPM19) limited-edition models. Designed in partnership with Rowing Blazers founder Jack Carlson and vintage authority Eric Wind of Wind Vintage, these watches revive the classic checkered "rally" timing bezel from Seiko’s late-1960s archives and combine it with playful preppy styling, eccentric contrast-colored NATO-style straps, and custom caseback art. Priced at $495 and limited to 5,000 pieces total (2,500 per size), the enthusiast community has already voted with their wallets—selling them out immediately upon launch. Watch the full review to see how the two sizes wear on the wrist and whether this collaboration hits the sweet spot between fashion and horological heritage.
