Hoist the flag

This colorful, special-edition Seiko 5 mechanical watch was designed in collaboration with American lifestyle clothing and accessories brand Rowing Blazers. Its bezel is decorated with the colors of Rowing Blazers' own livery in four, quarter-hour increments. Its special case back is emblazoned with one of Rowing Blazers' "house codes," a contemplative skeleton, as a memento mori: a reminder that time flies, with the words TEMPVS FVGIT. Co-designed by Rowing Blazers founder Jack Carlson and vintage watch expert Eric Wind, in collaboration with Seiko.
