A new Astron creation celebrates Seiko’s 145th anniversary in Edo purple, reflecting an evolving aesthetic shaped by Tokyo’s heritage. In the third series of commemorative limited-edition watches celebrating Seiko’s 145th anniversary, “Edo purple” serves as a central design element. This color reflects traditions passed on from ancient Edo to modern-day Tokyo and the spirit of creativity that has kept Japan’s largest city evolving into the present day. This model’s dial color is inspired by “Edo purple,” a hue that embodies the aesthetic sensibilities of Edo period Tokyo and represents a cultural heritage to be passed on to future generations. A horizontal pattern with varying widths between the upper and lower sections, combined with a gradient finish, creates a dial with a rich depth and refined texture. Gold-colored accents symbolizing a bright future, combined with a bracelet featuring a lustrous, mirror-finished center row, further enhance the watch’s sense of exclusivity.
