Seiko SRP777 Watch Review

Seiko SRP777 Dial & Case Design

This Seiko SRP777 is a very well known diving timepiece. It features this high visibility display with bold hour markers and hands that are coated in lume for excellent visibility in dim lit conditions.

The bezel is black in colour and can be rotated unidirectionally. It has minute numbering on the bezel.

Seiko SRP777 Type Of Crystal

The Seiko Turtle features a Hardlex crystal glass to protect the dial. This type of glass is known to be tougher than mineral crystal glass and offers you a pretty good amount of scratch and knock resistance.

Powering the Seiko Turtle is a 24 jewel automatic Seiko 4R36 movement. This movement has a 41 hour power reserve and features both manual winding and hacking. It beats at 21,600 BPH give it a really smooth 6 ticks per second movement.
