SEIKO "Chariot": A faithful reproduction.
Nano・Universe Reissues the Third and Fourth Editions
SEIKO x Nano・Universe "Chariot" was reissued in limited quantities last March, followed by an all-white limited edition in December of the same year. The collaboration generated significant buzz. This item, famously favored by the late Steve Jobs, co-founder of Apple, proved immensely popular, with both the first and second collaboration editions selling out instantly. With that momentum still strong, the third and fourth editions are now slated for release within a single month.

A Standard Quartz with Timeless Design
Released in the 1980s as a chic, slim dress watch, the SEIKO "Chariot" is also renowned for being a favorite of the late Steve Jobs, co-founder of Apple.
The minimalist design, featuring a combination of small Arabic numerals and bar indices with slim hands, is endlessly appealing. Coupled with the slimness inherent to quartz watches, which ensures a comfortable fit, its charm continues to shine across generations.
Available in two sizes: 37.5mm and 33.0mm.
The third edition, featuring navy leather with white and orange straps, will be exclusively available on the Nano・Universe official online store. The fourth edition, with black leather and ivory or black dials, will be sold on the official online store as well as at Nano・Universe stores nationwide (excluding some locations).
Please note that pre-orders for both the third and fourth editions on the official online store begin Friday, January 26th at 11:00 AM. The fourth edition will be available in stores starting Friday, February 23rd.
