In 2000, Seiko Sportura watch was launched
to great acclaim, especially in Europe, as a classic high-performance
sports watch. Its success has continued to grow and has led
to the creation of a new Sportura design which will complete
and complement the existing line.
Sophisticated and technically unmatched, the all-new stainless
steel Seiko Sportura Kinetic line-up features a sleekly futuristic
look with lean Arabic numerals, deep-cut streamlined grooves,
and a beautiful wrap from case to bracelet. The jet black
and metallic white dials have the same high legibility as
dashboard meters in a car built for speed, while the deft
balance of hairline and mirror finishes optimises the visual
punch that every model packs.
The Sportura line-up brings together Seiko's greatest technologies:
Kinetic Chronograph, Kinetic Auto Relay, Perpetual Calendar
and Alarm Chronograph sports watch. The Seiko Kinetic Chronograph
watch in particular showcases exceptional examples of quality
craftsmanship: independently mounted watch hands, heartcam
fly-back chronograph reset, backlash auto-adjust second hand,
super-sealed movement, and instantaneous date change.
Now available in a substantial range of designs, every Sportura
watch model offers the discerning sports-minded consumer a
stunning high-end timepiece with a powerful personality and
technology to match.
