Seiko’s new work SRQ055

Recently, Seiko officially released its new Prospex Speedtimer series chronograph watch SRQ055. This watch will be officially launched in September 2025, priced at 2,800 euros (approximately 23,100 yuan). It has made many improvements from appearance to practicality, and still maintains a strong racing spirit.

The dial design of SRQ055 is very simple and clear. The black dial is matched with white hour markers and hands, and the time can still be clearly read in low-light environments. This is due to Seiko’s exclusive LumiBrite fluorescent material, which ensures the readability of the watch in any environment.

From the appearance, the SRQ055 inherits the classic design of the 1969 Speedtimer, while also making many improvements. The new watch has a diameter of 42 mm and a thickness of 14.5 mm. The case is made of fine steel, which is not only strong and durable, but also feels excellent in hand. With a black dial, it looks even more calm and majestic.

The watch has a small seconds dial at 3 o’clock, a 12-hour counter and a 30-minute counter at 6 o’clock, and a very thoughtful date window at 4:30.

Most importantly, the movement of SRQ055 is also a highlight. This watch is equipped with Seiko’s own 8R48 automatic chronograph movement, which not only has a power reserve of 45 hours, but also has a vibration frequency of 28,800 times per hour, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the watch.

The bracelet of SRQ055 has been treated with super hard coating. The bracelet design is simple but not simple, making it more comfortable to wear.

As a chronograph watch, the SRQ055 is also quite powerful in terms of functions. I believe it will be able to meet the needs of the majority of watch fans.

Conclusion

The SRQ055 performs very well both in terms of design and functionality. I really think this watch will attract the attention of many watch fans. Do you think this watch is worth buying? Welcome to share your views in the comment area, and don’t forget to like and support!
