More than 50 years after its launch, the King Seiko VANAC is reborn with a new mechanical movement and a strong, angular design, inheriting the spirit that infused the original, opening up new possibilities for King Seiko. Inspired by the vast city where King Seiko was born, a metropolis that appears to extend endlessly into the distance, the theme for the new creations is the Tokyo horizon. The dial in purple takes inspiration from the Tokyo horizon in the evening twilight. The watches are equipped with the new Caliber 8L45, Seiko's most precise mechanical movement in production, achieving a stable accuracy range of +10 to -5 seconds per day. Through its combination of high performance and functional beauty, Caliber 8L45 represents the pinnacle of Seiko’s mechanical watch movements. Though the case has a strong and dynamic angularity that makes it look as if it were carved from a block of solid metal, its bezel-less design creates an elegant and thin appearance.
