Firstly, the SRPC41k1 is, as the name reveals, a ”Prospex” watch. Prospex stands for ”Professional specifications” and simply means that the watch is built according to the needs and wants of professional divers. In other words, it is built to last.
In addition, the SRPC41k1 is also known as ”Baby turtle” or ”mini turtle”. This refers to the case design/shape of this watch which derives from the Seiko ”turtle” name because its shape is reminiscent of a turtle. The reason this is called ”baby” turtle is that it is smaller than the standard turtle.
Oh, and let’s not forget this watch is also a ”PADI”. In case you are not familiar with PADI, it stands for ”Professional Association of Diving Instructors”. This is a diving organization with which Seiko has a long history with. And obviously, what better partnership for a dive watch than with a diving organization with professional divers who will test and use the watch for what it is actually made for?
With that said, the Seiko turtle is a case design used in some of Seiko’s most serious dive watches. The turtle is sporty, robust, durable, and built to last.
