Just last month, the Japanese watchmaker added some super affordable anniversary models to its collection in a range of purple hues. And now, with November fast approaching, it's showing no signs of slowing down. These are the six Seiko watches releasing in November to keep on your watchlist.
Seiko Prospex Speedtimer Midnight Riviera Blue (~$990) Inspired by the world of motorsport, this European-exclusive Speedtimer is a rather handsome addition to Seiko’s chronograph collection. Its dark blue dial features three contrasting gray sub-dials, while the 39mm stainless-steel case means things stay relatively compact. It’s solar-powered, meaning there’s no need for regular battery changes, and comes with both a steel bracelet and a tan leather racing strap.
Limited to 4,000 pieces, it’s one for fans of classic racing watches. Watch enthusiasts have been calling chronographs with white dials and black sub-dials “pandas” for decades. Seiko decided to take the nickname rather literally.
Its new Power Design Project watches feature panda-like faces, complete with pushers that resemble little ears. Available in white and pink, they're playful, very literal, and all the better for it. Seiko's second panda watch deserves a mention for its rather unusual inspiration: a newborn panda.
Unlike the black-and-white model, this version has a soft pink dial and matching leather strap which resembles the delicate pink of a newborn. Only 2,000 examples will be produced worldwide, compared with 3,000 of the white version. Seiko Prospex Marinemaster 1968 Heritage JAMSTEC Limited Edition ($3,900) For something a little more serious, there's the Marinemaster.
Drawing inspiration from Seiko's pioneering dive watches of the late ’60s, this new model combines vintage styling with modern engineering. It's part of the brand's Save the Ocean collection, which celebrates marine conservation, and sits towards the more luxurious end of Seiko's diving range. Seiko Astron Crystal Formation Emerald Ore ($2,900) Seiko's Astron collection has always been about pushing watchmaking technology forward, and this one certainly looks the part.
