The Ultimate Divers Watch - Seiko SBBN017 - Seiko Tuna Can


Seiko SBBN017
£949 imported to the UK and Europe









Seiko have produced many legendary dive and fashion watches - often the two cross over. Never was this more true than with the Seiko tuna can watches. You know why they are called tuna cans because they look like...yes, tuna cans. The tuna range were designed to deal with the problem of helium getting into the watch when diving and then breaking the watch when surfacing. Various watch makers have dealt with this by escapement valves, Omega for example, whereas as Seiko decided to stop the helium getting into the watch in the first place - hence this rugged beast. It may only be a watch but my word - what a watch! Designed to be the perfect dive watch - massively powerful lume, amazingly accurate refined quartz movement, resistance to 1000M with a case that could withstand a small war. The tuna range achieved their aim - if you dive then a tuna, or dive computer, is what you want. Yet the more utilitarian Seiko make their watches the more desirable they become as fashion icons. The tunas are amongst the most desirable watches for Seiko collectors - assuming grail status - your collection is not really complete until you have one (even if all you are planning is to take a shower with it on!)
