Seiko 5 Sports is pleased to introduce a collaboration honouring Bruce Lee, who wore 5 Sports during his lifetime.
This anniversary model pays tribute to a man whose legacy endures through his many achievements as a martial artist, actor, and cultural icon.
Born in San Francisco, Bruce Lee was a film actor, martial artist, director, and teacher whose career spanned continents.
He became a superstar with the smash hit The Big Boss (1971) but tragically passed away at the young age of 32 when he was filming Enter the Dragon (1973). Lee's other films include Marlowe (1969), The Way of the Dragon (1972), and more.
A multifaceted creator and martial arts expert, Lee founded Jeet Kune Do, which translates to "Way of the Intercepting Fist." His work continues to attract fans from all over the world.
The dragon, which Lee drew in his lifetime, is shown on the dial. And the bezel represents the spirit of Jeet Kune Do with a phrase that translates to "Using no way as way; having no limitation as limitation."
The black leather strap evokes the type of clothing worn in kung fu, with the dragon design on the inside. A nylon strap in the colour of the yellow tracksuit worn by Bruce Lee will also be included.
The glass case back features the Jeet Kune Do core symbol, which is based on the yin-yang symbol. The case back is also marked with "Limited Edition" and the serial number.
To commemorate the collaboration, the watch is enclosed in a specially designed box with Lee's signature.
