As such, the dial features a running track motif, while the gold hands are meant to evoke winning gold.The Prospex One Hundredth of a Second 2023 World Athletics Championships Speedtimer Solar Chronograph comes in two dial variantsSeiko’s involvement with international sports timing began without prior experience in 1984, when the Japanese government announced it has a ‘new generation’ of high-precision sports timing equipment ready to deploy.
