Blue dial. Octagonal bezel. Nothing else needed.
The octagon is the whole idea: a bezel with corners, on a case built flat and wide so it lies close to the wrist. Put a blue dial inside it and you get the rare thing, a sports watch shape that still looks correct with a suit.
On a rubber strap it goes lighter and more modern, which is how most people actually want to wear this design now. The blue shifts with the light, the corners of the bezel catch it in eight places at once, and the whole watch reads as considered rather than expensive. People who know the silhouette will clock it immediately.
The part you feel
Under the dial is the Seiko VK63 meca-quartz chronograph. Quartz does the timekeeping, so it is set-and-forget accurate and runs for years on a battery with nothing asked of you. The stopwatch is a mechanical chronograph module, and that is what you feel through the pusher: a crisp sweep on the start, an instant snap-back to zero on the reset. A date display sits in the dial.
A sapphire crystal covers the front, so the flat top of this case, the part most likely to meet a door frame, stays clear rather than collecting a decade of small scratches.

What this price actually buys
The watch this design echoes sells for more than a hundred times this price, and a routine service on it costs more than this entire watch. Here, one price buys the whole thing: a genuine Seiko meca-quartz chronograph module under sapphire, built to order for you. Nobody needs to know what it cost. That part is yours.
Order yours and start your build. You will get photos of your finished watch before it ships. Then you will get the watch.

How it works
Questions people ask before ordering
Is this a real watch or a fake?
It is a real watch and an original Rosevari build. Inside is a genuine Seiko automatic movement; the case, sapphire crystal and dial are parts we choose and stand behind. A fake is sold as the genuine article. Every Rosevari is sold openly as exactly what it is, a custom Seiko mod, with every part disclosed.
Is it automatic?
Every watch runs a genuine Seiko movement. GMT models use the self-winding NH34 automatic with an independently set GMT hand, datejust styles use the NH35 automatic, and chronograph builds use the VK63 meca-quartz. The exact movement for this watch is named in the specifications above.
How much does it cost?
This build is $255.00 USD with free shipping. Prices are shown in Australian dollars for Australian customers, and there are no extra charges at checkout for AU orders.
How long until it is on my wrist?
Every watch is made to order. Build and dispatch times are set out in our Shipping Policy. If it arrives faulty, damaged in transit, or not what you ordered, we repair, replace or refund it and pay the postage both ways.
