Seiko 5 Sports Forest Green Sunrise – A Tribute to India’s Wilderness

The Seiko 5 Sports Forest Green Sunrise celebrates India’s forests with a deep green dial, golden accents, and a collaboration with wildlife photographer Varun Aditya.

For the chase of stillness, light, and fleeting perfection, Seiko presents the 5 Sports Forest Green Sunrise, a watch inspired by the first rays of dawn over India’s forests. Its deep green dial mirrors the dense canopy, while golden accents trace the sunlight as it filters through trees, capturing nature’s ephemeral brilliance. The dial’s sunray finish reflects light from every angle, emphasizing the interplay of shadow and brightness, much like a sunrise peeking through thick foliage.

The watch features a bi-directional rotating bezel, representing the shifting light as day breaks, and a clear case back, offering a window into the 4R34 automatic movement powering the timepiece. Its GMT function allows adventurers to track multiple time zones, perfect for explorers crossing borders, while a cyclops lens over the date enhances legibility even in dim light. The hands and markers feature luminescent accents, echoing the first glimmers of morning light in dense forests.

Seiko pairs versatility with adventure: a stainless steel bracelet delivers everyday elegance, while the forest green special strap provides a rugged, earthy alternative for outdoor expeditions. Water-resistant to 100 meters, the watch withstands sudden rains, muddy trails, or untrodden paths without losing its poise.

To bring this edition to life, Seiko collaborated with award-winning wildlife photographer Varun Aditya, renowned for capturing the golden hour in forests and savannahs around the world. His work mirrors the watch’s ethos: patience, timing, and capturing fleeting beauty. Each watch comes with an exclusive photograph from Varun’s collection, making every timepiece a personal celebration of nature’s wonders.

Limited to 2,025 pieces, each watch carries a unique serial number. Crafted for explorers, storytellers, and those who value rare, powerful moments, the Forest Green Sunrise isn’t just a watch—it’s an invitation to witness the wild awaken at dawn.
