Seiko Presage Watch Arita Porcelain Concentric SPB445J1. This timepiece is from the Presage Craftsmanship Series watches made by skilled Japanese craftspeople which complement Seikos watchmaking expertise.

Arita, a small town in Kyushu -third largest island in southwest Japan, came to prominence in the early 17th century when clay suitable for porcelain was discovered becoming highly prized for high quality artistry. Despite a history of over 400 years, this traditional craft has never stopped evolving in terms of materials and moulding techniques.

Under dual-curve sapphire crystal glass is an Arita porcelain blue-white dial, contrasting with deep blue accented hands and indices; traditional colours of Arita porcelain. The recessed concentric ring pattern around the centre with the recessed subdial at 6 oclock demonstrate expert craftsmanship due to the difficulty of their creation from delicate porcelain. The case of this timepiece has a super-hard coating, allowing for improved scratch-resistance.

This timepiece is powered by an in-house automatic 6R5H movement, accurate to -15/ 25 seconds per day, with a power reserve of 72 hours.
Seiko Presage: Timeless looks, precise mechanical timekeeping. Minimalistic watch designs with a distinctly Japanese aesthetic.

*This Arita porcelain dial is created through handwork and firing at a high temperature. As a result, it may have little dimples, tiny dots, and an uneven color. These are unique features of genuine Arita porcelain dials, of which no two are exactly alike.
