Once again, Seiko has captured our attention with a trio of exclusive timepieces. The Seiko 5 SKX Sports Style GMT series, which debuted a little over a year ago, has been a favorite among watch enthusiasts globally. Read our original review here.

Now, Seiko unveils three new US-exclusive versions, adding a touch of flair to an already loved-by-enthusiasts lineup.

The first in this exclusive trio is a subtle nod to the classic "Pepsi" theme. It features a charcoal dial and a red and blue chapter ring, and everyone... well just nods to Pepsi O.G. by the crown.

Next up is the two-tone version, a harmonious blend of gold-colored accents against a dark gray dial (SSK021). This watch is special due to its understated charm, combining gold tones that add a touch of luxury without overwhelming the senses. It creates a perfect balance of style and subtlety.

Lastly, for the daring individuals, there's the striking yellow dial variant (SSK017) that immediately catches the attention with its vibrant personality. Teamed with a bold red 24-hour hand, this watch is a true testament to Seiko's mastery in infusing vitality into their designs.

All three watches feature a polished and brushed stainless steel case, measuring 42.5mm in diameter and 13.6mm in thickness. The sizing strikes a perfect balance, ensuring utmost comfort for wrists of all sizes.

What's intriguing is Seiko's decision to keep these captivating colorways exclusive to the US market.

Will they become hot and in demand outside US? Will Christmas travellers to teh US snap a few to bring back home as sought after prize?

The global appeal of these designs is undeniable, leaving watch enthusiasts exploring ways to get one - and such as online platfomrs like eBay or Chono are going to be combed for a chance to get one. Resellers might take interests as well. Perhaps, Seiko has a unique plan to roll it out globally.

Beyond their aesthetics, these watches house the reliable Seiko 4R34 automatic movement. With a frequency of 21,600vph and a 41-hour power reserve, these timepieces deliver more than just style; they promise precision and reliability.

For those eager to acquire these limited beauties, they are available now in the US for $475. Seiko enthusiasts in the US have the privilege of adorning their wrists with these exclusive gems.

In our opinion, Seiko has once again crafted a remarkable timepiece with their Seiko 5 SKX Sports Style GMT series. The attention to detail and the quality of materials are undeniably impressive, showcasing Seiko's commitment to excellence. However, one aspect that caught our eyes is the thickness of the rehaut. While the traditional bezel thickness aligns with Seiko's signature style, I can't help but wonder if this could be an area ripe for innovation. Nevertheless, this minor detail doesn't overshadow the overall brilliance of the watch. Seiko has managed to create a stunning timepiece that seamlessly blends tradition with modernity, offering a timekeeping experience that's both reliable and stylish.
