This watch features an automatic movement, 39,5mm, stainless steel, and green dial with gold markers and hands.

In January 2020 Seiko once again released three new Alpinists for the market, one which perhaps is the most desirable, the Seiko Alpinist SPB121. The alpinist has since its release in 1961 been in production from time to time, but ever since the fourth generation of the Alpinist was released in 2003 the demand for these watches has increased significantly. As Japan mostly is covered by Mountains the men who worked and spent their free-time there really needed a reliable watch that could handle the rugged terrain without having to worry too much about the accuracy. The inspiration for this watch came from ”Yama-Otoko”, which means mountain men in Japanese, and this is the original purpose this watch was made for. In 1961 Seiko first introduced their first serious professional sports watch meant to be worn by Japanese mountain climbers. Photo: Carat & Co Seiko Alpinist SPB121 Review & Guide
