The screw-down crown helps deliver excellent water resistance, and the case back is engraved with Popeye, reinforcing this model’s limited, story-driven identity.

Vibrant yellow dial and Popeye “Anchor Arms” hands

The SP-5163-01 features a textured yellow dial reminiscent of ocean waves. The hands are crafted in the shape of Popeye’s famed muscular arms (“Anchor Arms”), creating a fun yet readable design. Luminous Super-LumiNova Swiss Newlite fills the indices and hands to ensure strong visibility in low-light conditions. A seconds hand tipped with an anchor completes the maritime thematic.

Reliable Seiko NH35 automatic movement

With a 30 ATM (300 m) water resistance rating, the watch is truly suited for diving, giving you confidence even in challenging marine conditions.

Super-domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating
