Seiko spans the full spectrum of pricing and watch styles across hundreds of models, from affordable daily wear options to luxury watches destined to become collectible timepieces. The brand is wrapping up 2025 with a duo of stunning limited editions that capture the essence of its core appeal: the Seiko Astron GPS Solar Limited Editions, SSH187J1 and SSJ039J1.
First up in the new slate of watches is the Seiko Astron GPS Solar SSH187J1, a watch that draws its inspiration from the swirling stars of mysterious galaxies. Sporting an embossed spiral pattern on the watch dial that radiates to capture the motion of flowing stars, it’s a stunning timepiece that blends jet-black with dark turquoise for a cool, stylish look.
Packed with handy functions, the Seiko Astron GPS Solar SSH187J1 features a chronograph with up to 12 hours in 1/20-second increments, world time for 38 cities, a GPS signal reception function, and a perpetual calendar. It’s all housed in a robust titanium casing with a super-hard coating, finished with a dual-curved sapphire crystal and LumiBrite hands.
The Seiko Astron GPS Solar SSJ039J1 strips back the features for a minimalist alternative, retaining the swirling star-inspired visual style but without the chronograph watch elements of its companion piece. The watch’s bracelet can be easily configured based on the owner’s wrist size, while the scratch-resistant coating ensures a consistent black sheen over time.
With both the Seiko Astron GPS Solar SSH187J1 and SSJ039J1 Limited Editions presented in robust cases, it’s a promising sequel from a brand admired by horology lovers.
