The case slides smoothly under cuffs and reduces the possibility of snagging on things. It helps the wearer to use the replica watch with formal wear. There are a number of reasons that I like the turtle case (or more commonly known as cushion case). In reality, the actual performance is far superior. Based on specifications, it is rated for an acceptable error of -35/+45 seconds a day. It also powers day and date wheels and its main springs have 41 hours of power reserve. Operating with 25 jewels and 21,600 bph (or 3 Hertz), it is an automatic movement with hand “windable” and seconds hand stop capabilities. Under the rather clean screw-down caseback is the Seiko 4R36 caliber movement. What I meant is that this replica watch conforms to the ISO 6425 international standards for diving replica watches. The links are connected by a pin-collar retaining system.Įarlier I mentioned that this replica watch is an ISO certified diver. It has a simple diver’s extension and four micro-adjustment points. The bracelet that comes with this replica watch tapers to 20 mm at the centre clasp. This is a convenient way for changing straps and bracelets. The SRP773 has lug holes which were missing in the original 6309. The bezel is sloped towards the crystal and it has a coin-edge side to facilitate gripping. There are minute markers and Arabic numbers at every 10 minutes mark. The bezel is unidirectional with 120 clicks. In fact, the thick amount of LumiBrite paint gives a 3-dimentional effect to the dial which is obvious at any angle of view. All major indices, as well as the two main hands, are liberally painted with of Seiko’s “LumiBrite” paint. Only the seconds hand is a more modern interpretation of where the “lollipop” is on the back instead of the front in the original 6309. I was made to understand that the set-up is similar to the original Seiko 6309 diver. Since this replica watch is under the Prospex line and is also an ISO certified diver. This material is a Seiko in-house hardened mineral crystal. The glass protecting the dial is Seiko’s proprietary “Hardlex” crystal. The iconic cushion case features a unidirectional bezel, an unsigned screw down crown, a water resistance of 200 meters, and a screw case back featuring the famous ‘Tsunami’ logo. The lug width is 22 mm while the lug-to-lug distance is 48 mm. It has a width of 44.3 mm and a height of 14 mm. The stylish replica watch comes with a day and date function. The replica watch has a Prospex designation. I decided on the blue dial SRP773K1 that comes with a bracelet. In November 2015, Seiko announced a modern reinterpretation of the classic turtle divers of the 1960s and 1970s. This is very exciting for collectors such as myself as it gives me an opportunity to get replica watches that are no longer in production. For the last three years, Seiko has started to reissue (more like reinterpret) some of its classic models for the modern collector.
