Sneak Peek: Seiko Adds Four New high quality replica watches to its Prospex Speedtimer Mechanical Watch Collection.
Seiko's racing series has added several attractive color options.
Speedtimer is a significant name in Seiko's history, referring to the brand's early chronograph watches launched in 1969. Like Zenith and the joint ventures of Heuer, Hamilton, and Breiling, Seiko was one of the first three brands to introduce the 6139 automatic chronograph movement, using it in watches called Speedtimer. In recent years, Speedtimer has been used not only in several chronographs but also in the recently launched date-display watches, expanding the collection into a motorsport-inspired series. To celebrate Seiko's 145th anniversary, the brand is launching four new Speedtimer watches: HBD001, HBD002, HBC003, and HBC004.
The PROSPEX SPEEDTIMER mechanical chronographs HBD001 and HBD002 are the first two new models launched, both mechanical chronographs. Their architecture is the same as the SRQ047 and SRQ049 released in 2023, but the design leans more towards a retro style, inspired by the early 1970s Speedtimer chronographs. Compared to previous Speedtimer models (such as the ones mentioned above), Seiko has completely redesigned the series, making it more attractive, and using a 42mm diameter, 14.6mm thick hard-coated stainless steel case. The case surface is brushed and polished, and the central part resembles a helmet, paying homage to the iconic 1970s models. The rest of the case maintains a classic style, featuring a sapphire crystal, a large crown, and a concealed case back, a departure from previous designs. The case back is made of solid stainless steel, engraved with inscriptions, but not transparent. The 100-meter water resistance is also quite excellent for a chronograph.luxury replica watches
The 2026 models feature a redesigned dial, beginning with the addition of vertical engravings at the bottom. The HBD001 model boasts a sky-blue dial with contrasting elements. The tachymeter scale and subdials at 6 and 9 o'clock are black, clearly distinguishing the chronograph functions from the rest of the dial. The small seconds subdial at 3 o'clock is a lighter shade, harmonizing with the rest of the dial, while the white seconds markers add a striking touch. The HBD002 model offers a more elegant color scheme, while still emphasizing contrast between functions. The bottom of the dial is a warm silver, while the chronograph subdials are sky-blue. This watch comes with a grey leather strap, while the HBD001 features a hard-coated steel bracelet.
Both swiss replica watches are powered by the 8R48 movement, a precision movement with a vertical clutch and column wheel, ensuring smooth operation and precise seconds hand start-up. This automatic movement operates at 4 Hz, and its escapement utilizes MEMS technology, making it lighter and more robust.
Brief Specifications: 42mm x 14.6mm steel case with super-hard coating – sapphire crystal, solid steel case back, 100m water resistance – in-house 8R48 movement – automatic chronograph with column wheel and vertical clutch – 34 jewels – 28,800 vibrations per hour – 45-hour power reserve – steel bracelet (HBD001) or leather strap (HBD002)
PROSPEX SPEEDTIMER Mechanical HBC003 and HBC004
In addition to the dynamic chronograph, the Speedtimer collection
also adds two new date display watches. The Prospex Speedtimer
watch was initially released in mid-2025 as part of the
Datsun-themed collection, and soon after joined the regular
collection as the SPB513 and SPB515 models, lacking a chronograph
function. While it cannot measure elapsed time, its motorsport
inspiration is still clearly evident, with several unique
elements such as an integrated rotating bezel, making it a very
cool everyday sports watch. The case proportions are near
perfect—39.5 mm in diameter and 12.0 mm thick—and it is
water-resistant to 200 meters. The dial is protected by sapphire
crystal, while the case back is made of solid stainless steel.

In 2026, the brand added a leather strap version to the collection, model HBC004. This watch uses the same color scheme as the steel strap SPB515, with a dark gray (almost black) dial accented with orange on the inner bezel. The other model, HBC003, features a light blue vertically brushed dial, also accented with orange, but paired with a stainless steel bracelet.
Actuating within the case is the reliable 6R55 movement, a modern automatic movement offering a 72-hour power reserve. It vibrates at 21,600 vibrations per hour and is antimagnetic at 4,800 A/m, sufficient for everyday wear and weekend outings.
Brief Specifications: 39.5 mm x 12 mm steel case – Internal rotating bezel – Sapphire crystal glass, solid steel case back, 200 m water resistance – In-house 6R55 movement – Automatic winding – 21,600 vibrations per hour – 24 jewels – 72-hour power reserve – Stainless steel bracelet (HBC003) or embossed leather strap (HBC004)
