Seiko SPB485 Prospex GMT Diver: A Bold Blue Companion for Every Journey

In the realm of professional-grade dive watches, Seiko has long held a place of honor. From its groundbreaking innovations in the 1960s to its cutting-edge modern designs, Seiko’s Prospex series is a benchmark for performance, reliability, and style. The new Seiko Luxe Prospex SPB485 continues that tradition—this time with the added functionality of GMT travel timekeeping, wrapped in a bold, ocean-inspired aesthetic.

Combining Seiko’s heritage as a dive watch pioneer with its modern mechanical engineering, the SPB485 is a timepiece made for the adventurer: from ocean floors to international skies, and into the heart of your daily rotation. And now, available at Lexor Miami—your authorized Seiko Luxe dealer—you can experience this horological powerhouse with unmatched service, authentic presentation, and a luxury retail environment designed to make watch buying feel as refined as the watch itself.

A Modern Dive Watch for Global Citizens

The SPB485 stands out as part of Seiko’s 2024 Prospex GMT Diver lineup, bringing together advanced features, rugged utility, and a sleek new blue aesthetic. It is an evolution of Seiko’s dive-ready design, powered by the in-house Caliber 6R54—a robust, newly introduced movement that adds dual time zone functionality to a classic diver framework.

Whether you're a diver, frequent flyer, or a collector seeking a reliable GMT timepiece, the SPB485 balances innovation and tradition with ease.

The large, Lumibrite-coated hands and markers offer unmatched readability even in the darkest conditions. The 24-hour bezel, set in a dark metallic tone, is bi-directional—allowing you to track a second time zone with precision and ease.

This model’s refined aesthetic is as much at home in the conference room as it is under a wetsuit—a modern-day essential for those who explore without limits.

Inside the Watch: The Caliber 6R54 GMT Movement

The SPB485 introduces the powerful Caliber 6R54 to the Prospex family. This automatic movement is engineered in-house by Seiko and represents a major step forward in the brand’s GMT capabilities.

Movement highlights:

  • GMT function: Track a second time zone using the 24-hour hand and bezel

  • Independent hour-hand adjustment: Set local time without stopping the watch

  • 72-hour power reserve: Leave it off for three days and still pick it up running

  • Mechanical reliability: Seiko’s trusted durability with modern precision

This movement adds true travel-ready functionality to Seiko’s classic dive platform—making the SPB485 a true tool watch for modern explorers.

Built for Depth, Designed for Durability

Seiko's dive watches are built to endure—and the SPB485 is no exception. Engineered to meet ISO dive watch standards, it features:

  • A screw-down crown and solid screw caseback for secure water sealing

  • High-legibility design with Lumibrite coating for visibility in low light or underwater

  • Stainless steel case with super-hard coating, protecting against dings and scratches

Whether navigating the Pacific, swimming off Miami Beach, or simply washing your hands, the SPB485 is always ready.

Everyday Wear Meets Professional Grade

Despite its rugged build, the SPB485 is surprisingly versatile. The 42mm diameter makes it substantial but not oversized, while the smooth case profile ensures a comfortable fit under cuffs or wetsuits.

You can wear this watch:

  •  At the office, with its polished bracelet and smart blue dial

  •  While traveling, to track home and local time

  •  While diving or boating, with full dive watch functionality
