Seiko Prospex - the history of a scuba diving icon

Seiko produced its first diver's watch in 1965, but in 1968, a letter from a Japanese commercial diver frustrated with the quality of watches available prompted Seiko to set up a new department dedicated solely to making watches for divers.


From the original 1965 150M Diver's classic that started it all...


 

...and the ground-breaking 1000M Professional Diver's watch...



 ...to celebrity endorsement and big screen Hollywood stardom...



...and an ocean cleaning partnership with PADI and PADI AWARE...


Seiko Prospex is now one of the leading manufacturers of diver's watches in the world, a household brand name with more than 120 timepieces in its instantly recognisable, iconic Prospex diver's collection. Read on for the history of how one customer's letter changed the face of scuba diving watches forever.
