The Seiko Presage Cocktail Time “Blue Moon” Open Heart (SSA405J1) is an elegant, meticulously crafted timepiece inspired by Japanese cocktail culture, specifically the drinks served at sophisticated skybars in Tokyo’s Ginza district. This model features a beautifully textured, deep blue dial that mimics the rich hues of a Blue Moon cocktail. A distinct highlight of the dial is the circular “open heart” window at the 9 o’clock position, which provides a captivating view of the balance wheel oscillating within the mechanical movement. The watch is presented in a polished 40.5 mm stainless steel case, capped by a vintage-inspired, box-shaped Hardlex crystal that adds depth and a classic aesthetic to the refined design.
At the core of the SSA405J1 is the reliable, in-house Seiko Caliber 4R38 automatic movement. This 24-jewel mechanism offers a power reserve of approximately 41 hours and includes both manual winding capability and a stop-seconds (hacking) function for precise time setting. The intricate movement is further showcased through an exhibition screw-down case back. To complete its sophisticated look, the watch is paired with a matching deep blue calfskin leather strap featuring subtle stitching and a secure three-fold deployment clasp with a push-button release. With a 50-meter water resistance rating, the Blue Moon is perfectly suited as a versatile dress watch for both daily wear and formal occasions.
