Seiko Men's Recraft Series Automatic Leather Casual Watch (Model: SNKP27), Emerald, Automatic Watch

Product Information

The 62MAS was Seiko's first diver, but following on its heels was 1968s 6159-7001. This was a chunkier, more heavy-duty diver. It gave us the design features that you'll recognise from later Seiko models.

So it's no surprise that Seiko regularly delves into its own archives to inspire its new models. They use a variety of terms. Sometimes it's a reissue, and other times it's more of a reinterpretation. The Seiko Recraft Series is Seiko’s modern line of affordable watches with vintage styling. The watches aren’t reissues of any specific past models. Instead, they have a vintage-inspired design language, making them reminiscent of watches from previous generations. And not just any watches. The Seiko Recraft series offers a unique, even quirky look that sets them apart from most watches available today. Particularly watches from mass-market brands.

The kind of man who spends his weekdays in the office and the weekends climbing mountains.And that is how it should be. It's not a Skin Diver like the 62MAS. Instead, this model is a professional diver. A tough watch designed for long periods in water.

Rather than a 1960s inspired design, this model has a 70s vibe. Skin Diver watches of the time had generic cases (often built by Squale). So this watch has an angular case with pronounced lugs. This is matched with a simple rotating bezel.

But most are probably looking for that affordable standout piece in their collection, unlike anything else that they have. It will appeal to those who want vintage style and the look of craftsmanship from a past era. And it should appeal to people with the confidence to wear such an out of the ordinary watch, particularly in a time of featureless aluminum and glass slabs gracing so many wrists. The Seiko Recraft SNKP27 will stand out—and you will get noticed for wearing it.Watch companies spotted a gap and began to release lighter, slimmer dive watches. These were aimed at more casual divers. At the time of the watches release, manufacturers were breaking new dive records. Diver's were going ever deeper - for both work and recreation. But not everyone into dive watches needed that functionality.

As Japan's leading watch manufacturer Seiko has a long history of innovation. Seiko watches have been worn on the wrists of celebrities and were favoured by soldiers around the world. They made influential divers watches and were a pioneer of quartz and kinetic models. The solution is to build a new version. The best of both worlds. The look and feel of a desirable vintage piece, but with modern workmanship and technology. At first, this watch might seem a little overpriced. Especially when compared to Seiko's budget lines like the Seiko 5 collection. But a watch is more than a list of specs. Keep collections to yourself or inspire other shoppers! Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections - they may also appear in recommendations and other places. The 62MAS was a straightforward automatic watch. But it had 150M of water resistance. That was impressive when previous Seiko watches could only boast 50M.

It's typical of the period and reminiscent of the watches our dads wore in the 1970s. Like the Captain Willard model, Seiko has listened to its customers. Many of whom favour slightly smaller watches. So the 1968 re-issue is 42mm - rather than the 44mm of previous models.
