The company has chosen to associate the timepieces from the King Seiko collection with the circuit. In particular, the models featured in the partnership are the King Seiko SJE089J1, which draws inspiration from the historic KSK of 1965. The steel case has a diameter of 38.6 mm and a thickness of 10.68, has a screw-down case back engraved with the King Seiko logo and the iconic emblem. The box-type sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on the inner surface follows the contours of the case. The watch is driven by the calibre 6L35, a self-winding mechanical movement with a power reserve of about 45 hours.
