Seiko Prospex SLA017

The Seiko Prospex SLA017 is a limited-edition re-interpretation of the brand's first diver's watch, the 62MAS, originally released in 1965. This modern iteration was launched in 2017 as part of Seiko's Prospex line, known for its robust and professional-grade timepieces. It pays homage to its historical predecessor while incorporating contemporary watchmaking advancements. The SLA017 features a 39.9mm stainless steel case with a super-hard coating, paired with a black unidirectional rotating bezel. It is powered by the automatic caliber 8L35, a high-grade movement assembled by Seiko's skilled craftsmen. The watch is fitted with a domed sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating on the inner surface and offers a water resistance of 200 meters. As a limited edition of 2,000 pieces worldwide, the SLA017 holds significant appeal for collectors of Seiko diver's watches and enthusiasts of vintage-inspired designs. Its faithful recreation of the original 62MAS aesthetic combined with modern performance and finishing makes it a sought-after reference within the Prospex collection, representing a key piece in Seiko's dive watch heritage.
