Seiko Astron GPS Solar Dual Time

Seiko has created a new timepiece for world-renowned tennis player Novak Djokovic, the Astron GPS Solar Dual Time.

Created especially for the Serbian genius of the court, the watch makes travel across the continents a breeze for the globe-trotting tennis ace. This watch is available in a Limited Edition at select Seiko outlets worldwide.

Indeed, over the last year, Djokovic has played in 20 tournaments in 20 cities in 12 countries. Without his Astron GPS Solar Dual Time, he would have had to adjust his watch manually more than 60 times. With the Astron, however, all he needs to do is to touch a button and see his watch adjust to the local time automatically. His schedule over the coming year looks just as challenging, so when Novak saw the new Astron Dual-Time series, it was a natural choice. It shares all the core advantages of his current Astron, but with a new caliber and a simpler dial design.

Using just the power of light, every Astron GPS Solar watch connects to the GPS network and automatically adjusts, at the touch of a button, to every time zone on earth, showing the time with a precision of one second every 100,000 years.

Now, with the new Dual-Time caliber, it’s possible to read not only the time at the current loca- tion, but also the time in a home time zone on a simple 12-hour sub-dial with a separate AM/PM indicator. In addition, the day of the week is displayed in a retrograde display at the 2 o’clock position, with the date at the

4 o’clock position. The date is correct every day until February 28, 2100. Thanks to the electronic setting function in the crown, the watch is simple to operate and a joy to wear.

With a brown dial and crocodile leather strap, the rose-gold color highlights and the black ceramic bezel, the watch is offered in a special presentation box, with a card carrying a personal message from Djokovic.
