Our take on the Seiko Prospex HBC001 1968 Diver GMT Green Dial

The Seiko Prospex 1968 Diver GMT is a modern reissue of Seiko's first 300 m diver, now with a GMT hand and the in-house Caliber 6R54 automatic movement. It keeps the vintage case shape and mirror-finished sides, adds a unidirectional rotating bezel and a green dial, and is rated to 300 m for saturation-style diving. The six-step clasp adjusts about 15 mm, which helps over a wetsuit or when wrists swell. It sits above Seiko's entry divers in spec and finishing, and rivals Swiss GMT divers at a fraction of their price, though it is heavy and thick on the wrist.

What reviewers say

Owners praise the build, the 300 m rating and the clasp adjustment, and many call it one of the best-value GMT divers available. Complaints center on the thickness, the weight and the legibility of the GMT hand in low light.

What people mention
  • Case sizeMixedOwners like the vintage shape but say the case is thick and heavy on smaller wrists.
  • ClaspPraisedThe six-step, roughly 15 mm adjustment is called one of the most useful features.
  • MovementPraisedThe 6R54 keeps good time and the GMT function works as expected.
  • LegibilityMixedThe dial reads well by day, but the GMT hand is harder to spot in low light.
  • Water resistancePraisedThe 300 m rating is seen as real diving capability, not just a spec line.

About the Seiko Prospex HBC001 1968 Diver GMT Green Dial

This diver's watch revives the 1968 Heritage Diver's design in a green dial colorway. It is powered by the Caliber 6R54, which has a GMT function to show the time in two time zones. Water resistance is 300 meters.

The case design comes from the 1968 original, and the case sides are mirror finished. The bezel rotates in one direction only, and its edge is shaped for easy control.

The clasp adjusts in six steps of about 2.5mm each, for a total range of approximately 15mm. This lets the fit change with wrist size during diving and daily life.
