Del 4,437 Posted July 18, 2018 Picked up this new special edition Seiko while on holiday in Tenerife. Firstly, some background... “For this partnership, Seiko teamed up with ocean explorer and marine conservationist Fabien Cousteau, grandson of famed underwater explorer Jacques-Yves Cousteau. Like his grandfather, Fabien Cousteau has dedicated his life to exploring the oceans and to promoting their health and conservation. Seiko will contribute to the work of the Fabien Cousteau Ocean Learning Center. For the occasion, the brand has created a dedicated series of watches, which includes the new Prospex Turtle “Save The Ocean” SRPC91K1 Special Edition. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Cousteau’s Ocean Learning Centre.” There are a few Save the Ocean models but I was looking for a rubber strap version so this Turtle model was already in my sights. I must say, the photos don’t do it justice - the dial is an absolute delight! Plus the gun-metal coloured bezel and crown add a new dimension to the normal Turtle design. Very happy with the watch, and I got it from my usual dealer here in Tenerife so the deal was good too. Here are some pics from earlier today - hope you enjoy.
