A fresh street-ready collab with Japan’s leading skateboarder
Beloved for their lasting dependability and unbeatable value, Seiko's mechanical sports watches have long remained the benchmark of quality and the foremost choice for collectors and watch fans in the know. This new Limited Edition Seiko 5 was designed in collaboration with Japan's leading pro skater Yuto Horigome. Unique to this edition, you'll find the dial’s depth is expressed through the combination of a gradation and a delicate pressed pattern. An original logo based on Horigome's “hawk-feather” family crest appears at the 6 o’clock position. The special dial, crocodile pattern strap, and thick, legibility-enhancing hour and minute hands combine to create a vintage-style design that Horigome enjoys.
Born on January 7, 1999, in Tokyo, Japan, Yuto Horigome, influenced by his father’s legacy, started skateboarding at the age of six. He has been skating vert ramps since he was a child, and from his early teens has been in the top ranks of domestic competitions held in Japan. After graduating from high school, Horigome moved to the U.S., where his talent blossomed further. Within a year of his 2017 debut in Street League Skateboarding (SLS), the world’s top skateboarding competition series, he won first place in three 2018 SLS stops and became one of the top skateboarders in the world. In 2024, he continued to make Japanese skateboarding history with his second victory at a major international sporting event.
