Introduction The Seiko SKX009 is one of the most iconic and beloved automatic dive watches ever produced. Known affectionately among collectors as the Pepsi diver due to its distinctive blue and red bezel, this model has earned legendary status within the world of horology. Combining rugged functionality with timeless design, the SKX series represents Seiko's proud heritage of producing professional-grade dive watches at exceptional value. Historical & Collector Value Introduced in 1996 as the successor to the SKX007/009 lineage rooted in Seiko's diving watch tradition dating back to the 1960s, the SKX009 has become a modern classic. Since Seiko officially discontinued the SKX line in 2019, demand and collector interest have grown significantly. Powered by the reliable 7S26 caliber and built to ISO 6425 dive watch standards, the SKX009 represents the last of a golden era of affordable, mechanical Seiko divers. Its cult following, combined with its discontinued status, makes it an increasingly sought-after piece for both new enthusiasts and seasoned collectors.
