A tribute to motorsport history – Seiko Prospex Speedtimer Datsun 240Z Limited Edition.
Seiko and Datsun: A Shared Spirit of Motorsport
In the early 1970s, the Datsun 240Z roared onto the global stage as a symbol of speed, design, and innovation. Alongside it, Seiko supported Datsun’s motorsport challenges with precision timekeeping, marking the beginning of a shared legacy. Both brands embodied a spirit of performance and adventure – values that continue to resonate today.
Fast forward to 2025, Seiko honours this motorsport heritage with the release of the Seiko Prospex Speedtimer Datsun 240Z Limited Edition – a trio of timepieces designed for collectors, enthusiasts, and those who appreciate the harmony of engineering excellence and design.
The Collaboration Story
The collaboration between Seiko Prospex and Datsun pays homage to decades of motorsport history. Each watch draws inspiration from the iconic Datsun 240Z, echoing its chassis lines and racing colours. Red and black accents symbolise both performance and endurance, while exclusive engravings connect each timepiece back to the legendary car.
These Seiko Limited Edition Watches 2025 stand as modern interpretations of vintage racing spirit, bridging past and present for motorsport and horology fans alike.
