SSH186J – Seiko Astron 145th Anniversary Limited Edition
Seiko Watches From New Zealand Stockist: SSH186J1
Seiko Astron 145th Anniversary Limited Edition – SSH186J is a commemorative timepiece created to honour a remarkable milestone in Seiko’s history. In celebration of Seiko’s 145th anniversary, this special limited‑edition model reflects the brand’s enduring legacy of innovation and craftsmanship. Since its founding in 1881, Seiko has approached watchmaking as a way to solve real‑world challenges, guided by Kintaro Hattori’s enduring philosophy of staying “always one step ahead of the rest.” This anniversary release captures that spirit with a design that is both forward‑thinking and deeply rooted in tradition.
This GPS Solar Dual‑Time Chronograph embodies the technological excellence that defines the Astron collection. It automatically adjusts to your time zone with remarkable precision, powered entirely by light for effortless reliability. To symbolise success and prosperity, gold‑coloured accents appear throughout the watch—from the dial and bracelet to the case—creating a refined and celebratory aesthetic. The bezel is enhanced with a gold‑coloured sapphire crystal insert, adding depth, dimension, and a sense of luxury. Even the gold‑coloured markings at 1, 4, and 5 on the UTC scale serve as a subtle nod to the 145th anniversary, weaving meaning into every detail.
The SSH186J stands as a sophisticated tribute to Seiko’s past while embracing the innovation that continues to shape its future, making it a standout piece for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
In celebration of Seiko’s 145th anniversary, a special limited-edition model tracing Seiko’s legacy is now available. Only 1450pieces Worldwide
