Seiko reprises its collaboration with clothing brand Rowing Blazers with a new 40mm steel-cased collection featuring eye-catching orange, blue, green, and black dials, each sold with a steel bracelet and a specially designed nylon strap.
The latest Rowing Blazers x Seiko 5 Sports series, designed by Rowing Blazers founder Jack Carlson and vintage watch expert Eric Wind in partnership with Seiko, features four different references with four vintage-inspired dials. 
More specifically, the four new Rowing Blazers x Seiko 5 Sports models include: SRPJ57 (orange dial with an additional green and white nylon strap); SRPJ59 (lime dial with an additional purple and black strap); SRPJ61 (sky blue dial with an additional crimson and yellow strap); and SRPJ63 (black dial with hour markers in the colors of the brand’s signature “croquet stripe” with an additional matching strap). 
Each limited edition model (of 888 pieces) also includes a crown emblazoned with the Rowing Blazers logo and a caseback featuring the brand’s skeleton “Tempus Fugit” (“Time Flies”) motif.
Each with also will arrive in a presentation box. 
Wind explains that he wanted to design a new collection that reflected the spirit of Jack Carlson’s own vintage 1970 Seiko 6106-7107 dive model with a bright orange dial. “We kept the now-iconic ‘candy cane’ second hand and ‘Tempus Fugit’ case back from the first Rowing Blazers x Seiko collaboration,” he adds.
