What to know

Seiko’s Astron Nexter HAB012J combines blue, white and red details associated with Shohei Ohtani’s Los Angeles Dodgers uniform. The player’s number 17 appears in the sub-dial at three o’clock, while the caseback carries his signature. This Japanese-market edition is limited to 1,700 pieces and priced at ¥440,000 including tax.

Release is scheduled for 7 November 2026. The 43.4mm titanium watch uses GPS Solar quartz calibre 5X63, sapphire glass and 10-bar water resistance. A two-tone silicone strap accompanies the bracelet. The official store separately says orders placed from 23 October are scheduled to dispatch from 13 November, so the launch date should not be read as a delivery guarantee.
