CASE
Powerful Brilliance, Lightweight Wearability
The case and bracelet are crafted from titanium—approximately 40% lighter than stainless steel—delivering exceptional comfort even during extended wear. While preserving a refined gray tone, the contrast between expansive mirror-polished surfaces and finely executed brushed finishing creates a powerful brilliance and sophisticated presence in any kind of light.
DIAL
A Highly Legible Dial
Expressing the Tokyo Horizon
Inspired by the bezel design of the original VANAC from the 1970s, the index ring features three-dimensional minute markers. Lumibrite is applied to the hour markers and hands to ensure superior legibility in low-light conditions. In addition, a "V" motif is incorporated into the 12 o'clock index and the counterweight of the seconds hand, accentuating the VANAC's distinctive identity.
Through its converging radial and horizontal sections, the dial transports the wearer to the heart of Tokyo. With every passing second, one can sense the speed and excitement of the modern metropolis and the beauty of its expansive horizon.
BRACELET
A Bracelet That Balances
Beauty and Function
Seamlessly integrated with the case, the bracelet is characterized by elegant horizontal lines created through its slender link design. The lightweight comfort unique to titanium, combined with a one-push, three-fold clasp, ensures ease of use along with a secure and reliable fit.
CASE BACK
A See-Through Case Back
Crafted for Both Function and Beauty
The see-through case back reveals the movement within, with a brand emblem inspired by the King Seiko shield expressed on the sapphire crystal. Through the back, the beautifully executed wave pattern adorning the rotor and bridges can be admired in detail.
