Seiko has announced a new chronograph watch called the Prospex Speedtimer.
For its latestwatches, Seiko has rummaged through the archives and created a beautiful pair of motorsport-inspired mechanical chronographs.

The dial also features a tachymeter wrapped around its circumference, which can be used with the stopwatch function to calculate the average speed of an object covering a known distance, such as a car lapping a race track or covering a quart-mile sprint.
Seiko says how the new mechanical chronograph “takes direct inspiration from the Seiko archives of the popular 1970s motorsports influences chronograph releases.” The blue dial in particular draws inspiration from the ‘Seiko Sunrise’ watch from 1973, reference 6139, and is designed to “evoke the colours of a radiant morning sky.”
Available to pre-order now, the Seiko Prospex Speedtimer 1973 Mechanical Chronograph will be available in October, the company says.
