King Seiko VANAC 145th Anniversary Limited Edition 41 MM Stainless Steel Automatic Watch HKF004J1

Seiko marks its 145th anniversary with a limited-edition King Seiko VANAC in silver-white and blue. The dial's vivid blue index ring recalls the bold bezel of the original 1970s VANAC, and the blue itself is "Seiko Blue", a shade introduced in the 1960s and refined since as part of the brand's identity. The bezel-less steel case is sharply angular with a distinctive V motif on the dial and seconds hand.

Inside is the Caliber 8L45, one of Seiko's high-grade mechanical movements, rated to +10 / -5 seconds per day with a 72-hour reserve. The sapphire caseback shows an oscillating weight and bridges finished with a wave pattern, and carries a blue shield logo taken from the 1960s King Seiko emblem. Each piece is individually numbered.
