The next chapter in the Seiko Prospex “Black Series” has arrived.  Inspired by the world of night diving, the brand has taken the plunge with three new blacked out watches the SRPH11K (Samurai), the SNE577P (Tuna) and the SRPH13K (Monster).

The “Black Series” concept first dropped in 2018 with two Solar models and an automatic Turtle, the SRPC49. The success of the range quickly promoted another all-black collection in 2020 with two models once again delivered with black-coated cases, bezels and crowns, plus matte black dials emboldened with beige lume and bright orange minute hands.

Here, Andrew runs his eye over this new collection and is instantly smitten with the Samurai’s stealth aesthetic and clean lines. Somewhat unexpectedly, he also finds himself won over by the 46.7mm girth of the Tuna. Watch the video to get his full verdict on the range.
