In 1965, four years after the birth of the first King Seiko, a second series known as the King Seiko KSK was created. It was this design that defined forever the character of the collection, with its sharp, angular case and high functionality. This new re-creation brings the 1965 KSK back to life in every detail but with a champagne silver dial and gold color hands and hour markers that evoke the refined elegance of the original series.
 

The new watch combines a flat dial with broad, faceted indexes and sharply edged hands to echo with precision the essential design characteristics of the 1965 original. Just like the original, the sharply faceted lugs feature wide flat planes and razor sharp angles and are Zaratsu polished to a distortion-free mirror finish. The crystal is a boxed-shaped sapphire with an anti-reflective coating on the inner surface that delivers high legibility from any angle. The lasting beauty of the case is assured by the super-hard coating which protects the watch from scratches.
 

The case back carries the King Seiko name and the same shield design as the original. The Seiko name and a “W” mark that signifies the KSK’s water resistance appear on the crown. Even the buckle is faithfully re-created.

This new King Seiko KSK re-creation will be available from July 2022 as a limited edition of 1,700 at selected Seiko boutiques and retail partners worldwide.
