This watch features a silicone strap, while the dial features a fine pressed pattern dial.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- The accordion-style silicone strap combines durability and comfort - a strap design invented by Seiko in 1975 as a practical solution to the expansion and contraction of a diver's wrist at different depths.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe PADI timepiece collection is exclusive to Seiko, as the only global watch brand to design a range of professional diver’s watches in official colours featuring the PADI logo. PADI (The Professional Association of Diving Instructors) is the world’s leading scuba diving training organisation, unifying divers around the globe who share a passion for adventure and love for the ocean.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProspex is a combination of the words 'Professional' and 'Specifications.' Seiko Prospex timepieces are designed to be practical, reliable and durable; to meet the high standards required in extreme environments for sports lovers and adventure seekers alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince launching Japan’s first diver’s watch in 1965, Seiko’s innovative watchmaking has changed global dive watch standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe Case:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe Seiko Prospex ‘Sumo’ SPB325J1 is housed in a large case that measures 45mm in diameter and 12.9mm in height. The bulky proportions of the case are one theory suggested to explain the watch’s ‘Sumo’ moniker. One update to the SPB323 is that it is crafted out of stainless steel with Super-Hard coating, which improves the durability of the case. A further update is that the unidirectional rotating glossy black bezel insert is now made out of ceramic, as opposed to aluminum, which improves the longevity and resilience of the watch. It exhibits a 60-minute diving scale and a luminescent pip at the 60-minute mark. The case retains its twisted lugs with alternating polished bevels and brushed lines. The screw-down crown maintains its 4 o’clock position, whilst it also features a sapphire crystal like the previous generation of ‘Sumo’ did. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe Dial:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eFurther developments to the ‘Sumo’ SPB325J1 are also present through the design of the dial, as it showcases a black textured dial that features the PADI globe emblem. The dial does feature Sumo’s iconic markers and hands. The 12 o’clock marker features a unique marking which Seiko-fanatics have suggested bears a resemblance to the 'Mawashi' (the underwear worn by a Sumo during a match). The markers and hands are coated with Lumibrite, ensuring that the dial remains readable in the dark. A date-display window is located beside the 3 o’clock marker. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe Strap:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe watch is presented on a vented accordion-style strap that is made out of dark blue silicone. The strap fastens through the use of a pin buckle and can be worn over a wetsuit. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe Functions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe Seiko ‘Sumo’ SPB325J1 is powered by Seiko’s 6R35 automatic movement, which has a 70-hour power reserve and has an accuracy of -15\/+25 seconds per day. It is water resistant to 200 metres, which means that it can be worn when diving. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eIf you have any questions please \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.watchnation.com\/contact-us\/\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eclick here\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eClick here to join our \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/WatchNationUK\/\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003efacebook\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/watchnationshop\/?hl=en\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seiko","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51510368534869,"sku":"SPB325J1","price":931.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0951\/3720\/2517\/files\/image347037339.jpg?v=1758577803","url":"https:\/\/www.watchnation.com\/en-de\/products\/prospex-king-sumo-padi-special-edition-automatic-black-dial-silicone-strap-divers-watch-spb325j1","provider":"WatchNation","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
