Seiko has added four new timepieces to its 'Seiko Prospex Black Series.' These four watches are limited edition and retro-inspired. Three of the four timepieces offer very subtle differences in their font, dial layout, and faceplate design. One watch boasts a small-font dial with rectangle indicators while another boasts larger fonts and a mix of different shapes. Additionally, these three timepieces place the crown on a different part of the case, such as on the top or bottom corner, or on the middle of the side.
The fourth timepiece comes in a full-black colorway from the dial to the strap. Also, the strap on this watch is metal, while the first three have cloth straps with an optional silicone strap. The fourth watch also features a unique, texturized dial pattern named "sand on the sea bed." Lastly, the first three watches incorporate a large amount of black and orange across the bezel and dial, while the fourth comes in a full black-and-white color scheme except for one hand, which is full orange.
