The colors of summer

This colorful special-edition Seiko 5 mechanical watch expands on the ongoing design collaboration with American lifestyle clothing and accessories brand Rowing Blazers with a fresh quartet of editions for Summer 2023. 

Special callouts to the apparel maker appear throughout the case and colorful dial, from the red striped running seconds hand (evoking an original Rowing Blazers rugby jersey) to the signed "RB" crown and exhibition caseback, emblazoned with one of Rowing Blazers' "house codes," a contemplative skeleton, as a memento mori: a reminder that time flies, with the words TEMPVS FVGIT. Co-designed by Rowing Blazers founder Jack Carlson and vintage watch expert Eric Wind, in collaboration with Seiko, each watch ships in a special edition collector's tin, and includes a colorful pass-through NATO strap to complement the stainless steel bracelet.
