Seiko Presage SRPK46J1 'Beer Julep' Cocktail Time Watch
Description
Traditionally in Japan "Nomunication hour" - a hybrid of nomu (drink) and communication, is after 5pm - when it's cocktail hour and time to talk things over. The Seiko Presage Cocktail Time collection was inspired by this Japanese custom: each timepiece is named after a drink mixed by Hisashi Kishi, head bartender of Star Bar in Tokyo's Ginza area. With a dial designed to resemble the view of the drink through a glass, this timepiece is inspired by a "beer julep" cocktail. Mr Kishi mixes Japanese beer with whisky, gin, sugar syrup, lemon and basil leaves, to create a fragrant and fresh aperitif. The dial of this piece beautifully captures the sparkling crispness of the cocktail. A striking 40.5mm gold-coloured case and bracelet match its dial whilst golden indices are complemented by dauphine hands and a date function at 3 o'clock. It has a three-fold clasp with a push button release, as well as a see-through exhibition case back. It is powered by an in-house built 4R35 automatic calibre that is accurate to +45/-35 seconds per day. 50m water resistant.
