Seiko 5 Sports SKX Series Bamford Limited Edition SRPL95
Seiko unveils its first collaboration with Bamford Watch Department, a brand globally renowned for high-end creative customization. The limited edition SRPL95 is available exclusively at Seiko Boutiques.
Bamford Watch Department is a London-based watchmaker founded in 2003 by George Bamford. Renowned as a pioneer in the world of custom watches, the brand transforms traditional luxury timepieces with exceptional craftsmanship and a distinctive customization approach.
Created under the concept envisioned by George Bamford—renowned custom watch pioneer and founder of Bamford Watch Department—this model invites wearers on a journey to “paradise,” a world of freedom and refreshment away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Based on the ever-popular SKX series, the design reinterprets Seiko archive models using collage techniques. The result is a one-of-a-kind limited edition that fuses nostalgia with a futuristic spirit, offering a playful and imaginative take on retro-futurism.
Featuring a blue skeleton dial, this model incorporates the indexes and hands once used in the 1980s SKX series. The ocean-inspired translucent dial embodies George Bamford’s vision of duality—of what is seen and unseen, of the present and the timeless—capturing two worlds in one design.
The bezel insert recreates a classic Seiko archive design using a lustrous material that blends a sense of nostalgia with a futuristic feel. The “BAMFORD” logo is subtly placed at the 6 o’clock position on the dial and on the clasp of the nylon strap, adding a discreet signature touch.
The indexes and hands are coated with Lumibrite. By incorporating fluorescent accents throughout the design—including the bezel, hands, and nylon strap—the watch reveals a different expression under black light.
The case back is marked with the words “LIMITED EDITION” and a serial number to signify its exclusivity, along with the printed “BWD” logo, representing Bamford Watch Department. The special presentation box is a tribute to the packaging used in the 1960s and features a distinctive design with the Bamford logo printed on it.
