Presage 'Nausicäa of the Valley of the Wind' Studio Ghibli Limited Edition

This limited-edition model is inspired by contemporary Japanese artistry and is the third collaboration between Seiko Presage and the animated films from Studio Ghibli.

This design is inspired by the Japanese post-apocalyptic anime fantasy film 'Nausicäa of the Valley of the Wind' and resonates with its plot of preserving the planet and living in harmony with nature.

Several of the watch design features echo the film’s iconography - under a dual-curve sapphire crystal glass the dial is a blue enamel in the same colour as Nausicäa's iconic dress in the film. The glass exhibition case back features gold ion plating, as a homage to the film quote "clothed in blue robes, descending onto a golden field" – words which are engraved on the case back. The nature scene printed onto the glass emphasises one of the film’s key themes of our coexistence with nature. The blue glass crown is designed to resemble the eyes of 'Ohmu' giant insect characters, whilst the Ohmu silhouette features on the underside of the brown calf leather strap. The leather is sourced from an LWGcertified tannery, in keeping with the film’s ecological values.

The watch is powered by the in-house mechanical 6R51 movement which is accurate to +25 to -15 seconds per day and has a 72-hour power reserve.

This limited-edition model comes with its own special edition box.

Seiko Presage: Timeless looks, precise mechanical timekeeping; minimalistic watch designs with a distinctly Japanese aesthetic.
