Yuto Horigome isn’t just any skateboarder—he’s a game-changer.
As the first-ever gold medallist in men’s street skateboarding at the Tokyo Olympics, his name is etched in history. Now, in collaboration with Seiko, he’s lent his influence to a timepiece that embodies precision, style, and an undeniable sense of movement—the Seiko 5 SRPL31K Yuto Horigome Limited Edition.
Horigome’s journey from the skateparks of Tokyo to the global stage is nothing short of remarkable, and that same spirit is reflected in this special release. His attention to detail, appreciation for clean aesthetics, and relentless pursuit of excellence have all played a role in shaping this watch.
At its core, this is a modern interpretation of the classic pilot’s watch, whilst still retaining the Seiko 5 Sports design elements. The design stays true to the heritage of aviation timepieces, offering superb legibility with bold numerals, prominent hands, and the distinctive triangle marker at 12 o’clock. Seiko has infused these elements with its own signature craftsmanship, resulting in a watch that is both functional and stylish.
Elements of the case feature a refined brushed finish, contrasted by a smooth bezel and subtly textured lugs, creating a contemporary yet timeless look. The dial is a muted dark green with a rich texture that adds depth without compromising readability, while the black leather strap ties the whole design together, lending it a touch of understated elegance.
A standout detail is the two-feather emblem, the Horigome family crest, discreetly placed on the dial—an intimate nod to Yuto’s heritage that adds a personal touch to an already remarkable watch.
Inside, the Seiko 5 SRPL31K is powered by the reliable 4R36 automatic movement, offering a 41-hour power reserve and the practicality of a day-date complication. The transparent case back allows enthusiasts to admire the movement in action, a feature that never fails to impress.
With only 4,000 pieces available worldwide, this limited-edition release is as much a collector’s piece as it is a daily wearer. Its rarity enhances its appeal, making it a potential investment for those who appreciate both horology and the cultural significance of Yuto Horigome’s achievements.
