What to know
The anniversary Presage Cocktail Time takes its colour inspiration from Edo Murasaki, a cocktail created by Hisashi Kishi of Tokyo’s STAR BAR. Its radiant purple dial features nuanced highlights that suggest scattered gold flakes, complemented by a gold-coloured logo and GMT hand.
Inside the 40.5mm steel case, the automatic 4R34 calibre provides a second time-zone indication and a quoted 41-hour reserve. The watch pairs a box-shaped Hardlex crystal with a display back and steel bracelet, while water resistance is 50 metres. Limited to 6,000 pieces at $625 US recommended retail, it makes a particularly natural connection between Seiko’s anniversary colour and Japanese creative culture.
