Seiko Presage Cocktail automatic blue dial steel bracelet 40,5 mm

Cocktail Sky Diving

Imagine yourself sipping a refreshing cocktail in a trendy Tokyo bar. Japanese watchmaker Seiko transports you into this world with its collection of cocktail-inspired watches. The “Sky Diving” model is an invitation to reverie, with its colors and name evoking the dizzying sensation of a dive into the sky.

Design

This timepiece is housed in a 40.5mm-diameter stainless steel case, ideal for a masculine wrist. Its Hardlex crystal, Seiko's signature, is a hardened mineral glass resistant to everyday shocks. The transparent caseback reveals the workings of the automatic movement, a fascinating spectacle for watchmaking enthusiasts. The notched crown, located at 3 o'clock, also enables manual winding.

The dial is an ode to the “Sky Diving” cocktail. Its azure blue, enhanced by a sunburst finish, evokes the color of the drink. Elegant, legible silvered dauphine hands run around the dial with a discreet blue second hand. Pointed hour-markers, matching the hands, mark the hours, while a minute track specifies the seconds. An aperture at 3 o'clock displays the date. The “Seiko” signature at 12 o'clock and the “Presage” collection name at 6 o'clock complete the ensemble.

The stainless steel bracelet, both robust and elegant, completes the style of this watch. Its shiny finish enhances the case and adds a touch of sophistication. With a lugspan of 20 mm, it fits most wrists and closes with a secure folding clasp.

Mechanical side

The Seiko Presage Cocktail “Sky Diving” is powered by the 4R35 automatic caliber, a Japanese manufacture movement. Its 24 jewels ensure smooth, precise operation. With a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour, it offers a power reserve of 41 hours and a precision of -35 to +45 seconds per day.
