SEIKO BRAND 100TH ANNIVERSARY 1965 HERITAGE DIVER'S SPECIAL EDITION SPB455
Regular price
$1,400.00
Seiko Brand 100th Anniversary Prospex 1965 Heritage Diver’s Special Edition. Born of perseverance and hope, the history of the Seiko brand name goes back to the aftermath of the devastating Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923, when K. Hattori & Co., determined to rebuild, released its 1924 first Seiko branded wristwatch. Part of a special group of models commemorating this pivotal moment, this special edition features a charcoal gray dial and gold-tone accents that celebrate the anniversary year while calling to mind the many watchmaking advances that have been brought forth under the Seiko name. Updated with more power, greater water resistance, enhanced legibility and a compact construction designed for maximum comfort, this rugged yet sleek timepiece reimagines Seiko's 1965 first diver's watch, the beginning of the company’s legacy of setting the standards in dive watch technology and design. Framed by a coordinating uni-directional rotating elapsed timing bezel, the sunray finish dial offers a date calendar between 4 and 5 o’clock allowing for LumiBrite coating on the hands and all 12 markers, improving symmetry and legibility. With an upgraded power reserve of approximately 72 hours, 3 full days, the 24-jewel automatic movement beats at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour and includes manual winding capability. Crafted of stainless steel with super-hard coating, this superbly functional diver’s watch features a curved sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on the inner surface, as well as a screwdown crown and caseback. The bracelet is designed to incorporate links with a short pitch and a smaller clasp to match the sophisticated case design, which despite its slim profile, is engineered with a 300 meter water resistance. This Special Edition timepiece includes an additional black fabric diver’s strap made from 100% recycled plastic bottles, braided with the traditional Japanese Seichu technique for exceptional strength.

First off, I want to say that I absolutely love my new Seiko SPB503J1 “Alpinist”, which I purchased from Hislon Jewelry. At 34, it was finally time to buy my first “big boy” watch, and after extensive research, I landed on this absolute beauty. I contacted multiple authorized Seiko dealers in the area, and Hislon Jewelry was the only one that not only had several Alpinists in stock but was also willing to accommodate my late schedule. From the moment my wife and I walked into their showroom, I knew I made the right choice. Their display featured an impressive collection of Seiko, King Seiko, Michele, Tissot, and Rolex watches—clearly a store that takes pride in quality and selection. We were helped by Paige, who was both kind and extremely knowledgeable. However, what truly set Hislon Jewelry apart was the customer service that followed after the sale. I’ll admit—I can be a bit neurotic when it comes to expensive purchases. After leaving the store wearing my watch, I started to worry that the clasp might not be fully secure (this may very well have been in my head). My wife suggested we stop by the next morning to have it looked at. Once again, Paige assisted us, and whether my concern was valid or not, she handled everything with complete grace and professionalism. She offered to swap the watch for another one and readjusted it so it fit perfectly. She never made me feel rushed, dismissed, or uncomfortable. Instead, she made me feel heard and taken care of—and that speaks volumes about the level of professionalism at Hislon Jewelry. I am 100% satisfied with both my purchase and the service I received. I would highly recommend Hislon Jewelry for all your watch and jewelry needs, and I will absolutely be back when it’s time to add the next piece to my collection.

We created a spectacular piece I’m so grateful

I can’t say enough good things about this jewelry store! The staff are honest, reliable, and truly care about their customers. They take the time to explain everything and make sure you’re completely comfortable with your purchase. It’s such a relief to find a jeweler I can trust — I won’t go anywhere else now!

I‘ve always shopped at big box jewelry stores and this week I came across this nice gem of a place -no pun intended- Hislon Jewelry. The first thing that caught my attention was the selection of watches, but I was on a mission to buy a chain. Jeff greeted me and showed me the different chain styles and gave me a lot of information on the price of gold. I felt very comfortable and the quality of the fine jewelry was excellent. I definitely enjoyed my shopping experience and I won’t be going to a big box store anymore!
