Celebrate a century of Seiko excellence with the King Seiko SJE115J1, a limited-edition timepiece marking Seiko's 100th anniversary and the Year of the Dragon. With only 700 pieces available worldwide, this stunning watch commemorates Seiko’s long legacy of innovation while drawing inspiration from its history-making 1969 45KS Chronometre. The 45KS was Japan’s first certified Chronometre, setting new standards in mechanical accuracy—an achievement that continues to inspire today’s Seiko craftsmanship.
The ‘Rising Dragon’ re-interpretation of the 4502-8020 showcases a dial adorned with the intricate ‘Urokomon’ pattern, resembling dragon scales. A symbol of prosperity and vitality in East Asia, the dragon motif ties beautifully into both the Year of the Dragon and Seiko’s remarkable century of watchmaking. This limited-edition timepiece combines historical homage with vibrant symbolism, making it a true collector's piece.
The design echoes the original silhouette, retaining the curved case shape, the 12 o’clock arrow-feather index, and the classic date feature. The narrow link bracelet reflects the Sixties-style aesthetic Seiko is known for, giving it a timeless appeal. At just 9.9mm in depth, this watch is powered by Seiko’s slimmest in-house automatic calibre, the 6L35. This sophisticated movement delivers precision with a remarkable accuracy of +15/-10 seconds per day and a solid 45-hour power reserve. The bidirectional and semi-instantaneous winding mechanism ensures smooth operation, making it both practical and stylish for everyday wear.
