What stands out in this watch:
  • Seiko Prospex 'Captain Willard' 2021.
  • This 1970 Diver's modern reinterpretation timepiece commemorates the 80th birthday of Japanese explorer Naomi Uemura, the first man in the world to climb the highest peaks of each five continents - wearing a Seiko diving watch.
  • From 1974 to 1976 Uemura wore Seiko's diver’s watch on his expeditions like the 12,500km dog-sledge run from Greenland to Alaska. This watch is a re-creation of Uemura’s adventure watch.
  • Movement: 8L35 Calibre Automatic movement with manual winding option and with 26 jewels. Up to 50 hours power reserve. The calibre contains 192 individual parts. The movement beats at 28,000 vibrations per hour. 
  • Curved sapphire crystal glass with anti-reflective coating on the inner surface.
  • The dial pattern is based on the mountainous surfaces that Naomi would have seen on his numerous treacherous climbs and subsequent dog sledge alpine missions.
  • The crown at 4 o'clock position for comfort and practicality is protected by the wide flowing case design around it, creating its signature look.
  • 200m water resistant watch.
  • The design was named 'Captain Willard' by fans for Martin Sheen's character who wore it in the 'Apocalypse Now' movie.
  • Prospex is a combination of the words 'Professional' and 'Specifications'. Seiko Prospex timepieces are designed to be practical, reliable and durable; to meet the high standards required in extreme environments for sports lovers and adventure seekers alike. Since launching Japan's first diver's watch in 1965, Seiko's innovative watchmaking has changed global dive watch standards.
