What happened
Seiko has released a new collection of six limited-edition watches characterized by "Edo Purple" dials to commemorate the brand's 145th anniversary. The lineup includes a diverse array of models, specifically featuring two new titanium Astron Nexter watches alongside a rotocall model and other variations. These additions are positioned as a thematic celebration of the company's heritage, with designs ranging from modern high-tech titanium builds to iterations inspired by earlier timepieces from the 1990s.
Reporting from Hypebeast, Esquire, Oracle Time, Fratello Watches, and Notebookcheck confirms the aesthetic focus on the purple color scheme across all six units. While the collection is framed as a unified 145th anniversary set, specific technical distinctions between the individual watch models remain detailed across the various publications. Documentation regarding the total production volume for these limited editions is not yet specified.
Prospective buyers currently lack information on regional distribution strategies or official release schedules beyond the initial announcement.
