SEIKO Skyliner Ref.6222-5010, 1966

— Quiet, after dark —

The Seiko Skyliner appeared in 1966, during Japan's high-growth years, when a slim watch was the definition of elegance — and, as the name suggests, it has the lightness of something moving across the sky.

— A radiating dial —

A black dial that seems to sink away from you. Twelve rays run sharply out from the centre, answering the geometry of the square case and carrying the mid-century modern air of its period.

The date window at twelve goes beyond function and works as the accent that keeps the whole design in balance.

— Calibre 6222C —

The dependable hand-wound calibre Seiko 6222C: a practical movement concentrating Seiko's technique of the day, its 21-jewel precision keeping a regular and comfortable rhythm that makes the noise of the present recede a little.

— Vintage bearing —

At 31 × 33mm, a stainless case where straight lines and curves meet well produces a real unity with the wrist.
