What to know

Seiko marks PADI’s 60th anniversary—and a decade of partnership between the organisations—with the Prospex HBB002. Its blue dial carries a globe pattern derived from PADI’s anniversary identity, while red accents appear at six o’clock and on the seconds hand. The 45mm steel case uses a blue ceramic bezel and sapphire crystal with a magnifier.

Automatic calibre 4R36 provides hand winding, a day-date display and approximately 41 hours of reserve. The watch is rated to 200 metres and comes on a steel bracelet with an additional PADI-branded silicone strap designed to accommodate a wetsuit. Production is limited to 8,000 pieces, with an official European price of €750.
