Pre-Owned Seiko Alpinist SPB089 Limited Edition Hodinkee
Introducing the Seiko U.S. Limited Edition Alpinist, a watch that pays tribute to the iconic Seiko sports watch that captured the hearts of adventurers and watch enthusiasts alike since its debut in 1959. This limited edition release is exclusively available in the U.S. market and celebrates Seiko's rich heritage and pioneering spirit. Only 1,959 pieces have been crafted to pay homage to its inaugural year. This highly anticipated revival of the Alpinist promises to captivate both seasoned collectors and newcomers to the world of horology.
The Seiko U.S. Limited Edition Alpinist embodies the essence of a true tool watch, evoking the rugged charm of its predecessor. It features a robust 39.5mm stainless steel case that is enhanced with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and has a remarkable water resistance of 200 meters, making it built to withstand the rigors of outdoor exploration. The Alpinist is powered by Seiko's reliable in-house 6R15 automatic movement, which delivers precision timekeeping while exuding vintage-inspired elegance with its classic leather strap.
One of the distinctive features of the Alpinist is its second crown that is positioned at four o'clock, which controls the inner rotating bezel with a compass function. This practical tool allows wearers to approximate their bearing and offers a sense of direction for outdoor adventures. Beyond its functionality, the inner rotating bezel adds character to the watch, complementing its rugged aesthetic with a touch of sophistication.
The Seiko U.S. Limited Edition Alpinist promises to be a treasured companion for any journey, whether navigating urban landscapes or exploring the great outdoors, with its unparalleled blend of style, functionality, and exceptional value.
