The urushi lacquer dial is hand-applied by artisans using techniques that have been practised in Japan for centuries — each layer is applied, dried, and polished by hand, creating a depth and luminosity that no industrial process can replicate. Like the enamel HCC005J1, each urushi dial has slight variations in colour and surface — no two are exactly alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSeiko 6R5H automatic calibre — 24 jewels, 72-hour power reserve, hand-winding capability, stop second hand for precise setting, Made in Japan (J1)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e24-hour hand — tracks a second timezone or distinguishes AM from PM at a glance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e+25\/-15 seconds per day accuracy — tighter tolerance than the 4R-series movements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUrushi lacquer dial — hand-applied Japanese lacquerwork with unique surface characteristics on every piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e39.6 mm stainless steel case — 12.4 mm thick, 46.8 mm lug-to-lug, classic dress-watch proportions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDual-curved sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on inner surface — premium clarity with reduced internal reflections to showcase the lacquer surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSee-through screw case back — reveals the 6R5H calibre at work, secured by screw-down back\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCow leather strap with three-fold clasp and push-button release — warm, tactile, and dressy on 20 mm lugs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4,800 A\/m magnetic resistance — shielded against everyday magnetic fields\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSplash resistant — suitable for handwashing and rain but not swimming or submersion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HCC006J1 is the Presage for the buyer who values Japanese craft tradition above all else. Urushi lacquer is one of Japan's most revered artisan techniques — the sap of the urushi tree is refined, coloured, layered, dried, and polished by hand over days or weeks to create a surface with a depth and warmth that no other dial material can match. Where the enamel HCC005J1 delivers a bright, glass-like surface, the urushi HCC006J1 delivers a softer, warmer, more organic depth — the lacquer absorbs and reflects light differently from enamel, creating a living surface that shifts with the viewing angle. Same 6R5H calibre, same 72-hour reserve, same dual-curved sapphire with AR coating — two different artisan traditions, two different visual experiences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHCC006J1 vs HCC005J1\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth share the same 6R5H calibre with 72-hour reserve and 24-hour hand, the same 39.6 mm case, the same dual-curved sapphire with AR coating, the same cow leather strap, and the same splash resistance. The HCC006J1 has an urushi lacquer dial in a standard stainless steel case — the warmer, more organic artisan tradition. The HCC005J1 has an enamel dial in a Super Hardcoated stainless steel case — the brighter, more glass-like artisan tradition with added scratch resistance on the case. Same Craftsmanship philosophy, two different Japanese craft techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Seiko Story\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince 1881, when Kintaro Hattori founded a clock and watch shop in Ginza, Tokyo, Seiko has been at the forefront of timekeeping innovation — from the world's first quartz wristwatch in 1969 to today's GPS Solar and Spring Drive technologies. The Presage collection carries Seiko's dress-watch heritage forward with Japanese-made movements and artisan-inspired design. The \"Craftsmanship\" line within the Classic Series represents the pinnacle of that philosophy — the HCC006J1 carries one of Japan's oldest and most revered art forms, urushi lacquer, onto the watch dial inside a precision 6R5H timepiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBacked by Seiko's official warranty.
