The design of this limited edition watch has been created in a collaboration with the denim menswear label DENHAM. Both brands share the value of passion, innovation and traditional craftsmanship from the initial sketch to the final design – DENHAM’s motto being ‘the truth is in the details.’
In classic Seiko SKX style, the dial of the ‘Jeanmaker’s watch’ is created in a highly reflective navy DENHAM blue. The perimeter of the dial is outlined by a detailed tacking stitch design, inspired by the signature stitching found on the brand’s jeans. This ‘sewn’ detail is continued to the NATO strap – made in denim-coloured fabric.
The bezel is crafted from aluminium, with a gradation from imperial to electric indigo blue. The watch features the iconic scissor DENHAM logo in several places: on its crown, glass caseback and nylon strap. The scissor icon is most prominent at the 12 o’clock position on the dial, within a triangle-shaped index redesigned upside down to resemble the DENHAM jeans label. The colour of the second hand has been purposely designed to resemble the colour of the red painted rivets on their jeans.
