In 1969, Seiko released the world's first automatic chronograph equipped with both vertical clutch and column wheel, known as the Seiko Speedtimer. One piece from the first 6139 Speedtimer series rose to stardom as the first automatic chronograph to travel in space: in the 70s, NASA astronaut Colonel William Pogue took the original chronograph on a mission to Skylab - the first US space station. The watch became nicknamed the ‘Pogue’ after its star explorer wearer. This modern re-interpretation is equipped with an ultra-scratch resistant curved sapphire glass with an anti-reflective coating on the inner surface that imparts superior dial clarity for the user and showcases the vivid yellow dial, characteristic of the 6139 original. The watch is also sealed to 100m water resistance and as such is perfect for general water sports use. Accurately recreating the 'Pogue,' the second hand, and subdial minute hand at 6 o'clock are in a bright red. With 12 spots of Lumibrite across each of the wide vintage-style indices, this Speedtimer is designed for legibility in dark conditions. In the style of the original, this piece has a blue and red aluminium bezel with a tachymeter feature. The bracelet is tapered from the lugs all the way to the buckle and secured with a push button tri-fold clasp. Fitted with the inhouse manufacture Seiko V192 quartz solar powered calibre, it is not only an environmentally friendly choice in not requiring wasteful, expensive & repeated battery changes of traditional battery quartz watches, this functionality will also save you money too in the long run. Conveniently, this watch charges from both natural and electric light and will continue to recharge itself to maximum capacity whilst exposed to any light. Accurate to +/- 15 seconds per month, it has a power reserve of 6 months at full charge. The V192 calibre features a 60 minute chronograph function timing to 1/5th of a second, with split time recording and a separate 24 hour sub dial at the 3 o’clock position. A power reserve indicator is also positioned at the sub dial at 6 o’clock. A date of month window is positioned just below the 4 o’clock marker. Prospex is a combination of the words 'Professional' and 'Specifications.' Seiko Prospex timepieces are designed to be practical, reliable and durable; to meet the high standards required in extreme environments for sports lovers and adventure seekers alike. Built to last and backed by Seiko’s trusted global service centre network with a 2 year guarantee, this watch will provide a lifetime of reliable service and pleasure for the owner.
