The Seiko Astron SSH157J1 Limited Edition is an amazing watch that brings state of the art technology together with design and an incredibly high quality level. This watch stands as a beacon of reliability and style. Seamlessly merging advanced GPS functionality, solar-power and Seiko's timeless elegance. This is the ultimate companion for the modern adventurer and traveler.
To start the watch features Seiko's latest in-house Cal. 5X83 movement. This movements connects to GPS satellites, so it automatically adjust to the local time zone, ensuring you are always in sync with the world, regardless of your location. Powering this is done by the integrated solar cells, that can charge the watch up to 6 months with a full charge. Of course the movement has a plethora of features, such as a perpetual calendar until 2100, power reserve indicator, world time (39 timeszones), dual timezones, automatic hand alignment and a power save feature. And one of the nicest features of all, the 5X83 is the first Astron GPS Solar movements to feature a chronograph complication!
Putting all these features in a watch is one thing, but to make it look good and comfortable is another challenge and Seiko has definitely pulled it off, by combining to notch materials and great design. To begin, the watch is made from titanium, which ensures the watch isn't too heavy (117 grams with all links) and lends the typical titanium look to the watch. Additionally the bezel is made from scratch-resistant ceramic.
The case has a modest diameter of 43.3mm and 13.4mm thickness, which both ensure a very comfortable wearing experience, despite packaging so many features under the hood. The gorgeous dial has a unique transparent crystal pattern and is of course protected by sapphire glass, which has a truly Super-clear coating, that makes it seem like the glass isn't there and allows you a clear view of the wonderful depth of the dial.
The SSH157J1 has a a unique blend of styles at a quality and finishing level that feels more grand than the price tag demands and is limited to just 1500 pieces worldwide.

We're an authorised dealer of all of our brands, unless otherwise noted. In this day and age there are also many 'grey market dealers' that compromise. What are the main benefits of buying from an authorised dealer with regard to the warranty?
3 year warranty
Seiko watches come with a 3 year warranty. This covers all mechanical malfunction arising from parts failure and/or assembly errors. Excluded are parts that by their nature may not last 3 years, like batteries and leather straps, damage/problems caused by improper use and wear and tear. We stand behind the brands that we sell and the quality that they offer.
Some of our brands also offer an international warranty, which will also apply.
Service and parts
In the unfortunate event of a problem with your watch, you simply need to send it to us (or take it to another dealer if the brand offers an international warranty). We have access to the official service centers, where only original parts are used and the watchmakers are qualified and experienced with your type of watch. Not every watch movement is the same, so it's best if it's handled by people who know what they are doing.
After your 2 years warranty has expired we are able to offer service in most cases.
