Seiko 5 Sports - SRPD79

Stealthy from strap to bezel, the Seiko 5 Sports SKX series (ref. SRPD79) is a proud, low-key take on Seiko's sports watch. A black ion finished case surrounds a black dial with black hands and markers, while a black unidirectional rotating bezel and a matching black nylon strap complete the monochrome look. A day/date display keeps the essentials close at hand.

Turn the watch over and the see-through screw case back reveals Seiko's caliber 4R36 automatic movement, with 24 jewels, 21,600 vibrations per hour, approximately 41 hours of power reserve and manual winding. The 42.5mm case pairs a Hardlex crystal with 100 meters of water resistance and magnetic resistance of 4,800 A/m. The nylon strap gives it a relaxed, casual feel, making it an easygoing everyday watch with a bold monochrome edge.

  • Black ion finished case – stainless steel with a black hard coating.
  • Black nylon strap – matched to the black dial and bezel.

  • Caliber 4R36 automatic – 24 jewels and approximately 41 hours of power reserve, with manual winding.

Timepiece History

Seiko's story began in 1881, when a 21-year-old entrepreneur, Kintaro Hattori, opened a shop selling and repairing watches and clocks in central Tokyo. The first watch to carry the Seiko name followed in 1924, and Seiko went on to introduce a long line of watchmaking firsts, including the Quartz Astron, the world's first quartz wristwatch, on December 25, 1969. In 2024, Seiko celebrated the 100th anniversary of the Seiko brand.

The SRPD79 belongs to Seiko 5 Sports, a collection rooted in the Seiko Sportsmatic 5 of 1963, Japan's first automatic day-date watch. Seiko 5 Sports itself was born in 1968, adding enhanced water resistance, a strengthened crystal and luminous hands and markers to the Seiko 5 essentials of an automatic movement, a day-date display, water resistance, a recessed crown and a durable case and bracelet, and it found worldwide favor as a go-anywhere watch. In 2019, Seiko 5 Sports was rebranded to carry watch culture forward to the next generation. Its design follows the SKX series, the successor to the watch widely known as the "SKX," a watch loved around the world.
