You could say that black is perhaps the most popular, if not the most commonly used color on dive watches. The Seiko Prospex Black Series started back in 2018. The idea of the black series was inspired by night diving. The all black aesthetic was showcased on a Seiko Turtle and two Prospex Solar Divers watches – one a classic three hand date model and the other a chronograph.

Since then, the brand has introduced yet another blacked-out collection in 2020, including the two models, the SLA035J1 and SPB125J1. This year, Seiko decide to feature three different iconic designs which are the ‘Monster,’ ‘Tuna,’ and ‘Samurai’.

Strap code,

I would like to buy the black metal band only in the photo above. I think it would look great on my older Seiko 5 Sports Watch. 2011?
Please, let me know.
Thanks.
