Seiko watches have been building watches for a long time. With Japanese craftsmanship, it ensures that watchmakers will waste no part. All watches go through rigorous testing and quality control. For one type of watch, the Yachtmaster comes to mind. Seiko Yachtmaster is well-known in the industry.
Short History of the Seiko Yachtmaster
The design origins of the Seiko Yachtmaster date back to 1992. At this point, Rolex introduced their Yacht Master meant for the wealthy wearer. It had a good reception, and it impacted Rolex’s tradition of offering the watch in 29mm, 35mm, and 40mm sizes. The design of Yacht Master then became the basis for future modders by using the Seiko SKX007.
While the SKX007 is no longer in the market, it gained status as a collector’s item. As a result, imitations of the real model surfaced.
Knowing how Seiko markets its watches, luxury designs became accessible to everyone. However, it does not mean that their luxury is tainted. On the contrary, complementing two polar opposites can make an interesting combination. Today, Seiko Yachtmaster watches come in four variants: Gold, Silver, Black, and Two-tone.
Gold Yachtmaster
The gold color cannot fit everyone. Even on brands like Seiko, a full gold watch is not something that should be worn daily. Unless you know how to present yourself, the gold color can shine bright.
Silver Yachtmaster
Silver is the second color in mind when you do not want to have a full gold look. When paired with the right dial, it can make a good impression. What you get is an elegant feel with a subtle touch.
Black Yachtmaster
Almost all modders use black because of its flexibility. Any bezel can fit right in the Yachtmaster, which gives a sleek finish. Another reason black is the most preferred is that the color can go with anything. It is subtle and popular with everyone.
Two-tone Yachtmaster
Two tones are the combination of three available colors. Popular combinations go with Black and Gold and Silver and Gold. People rarely use Black and Silver, but it is a suitable combo. The gold here is mostly used for accent colors. Getting that right pairing takes balance where a good design results in an exquisite watch. It can take time where you can get the right combination of colors.
Conclusion
Yachtmaster paved the way for accessible luxury. But, while it did have its intentions, making it exclusive is not enough. The style of the watch transcends all.
