Imagine for a moment being on the shores of a hidden paradise. Crystal-clear water shimmers under the sun, and a breathtaking landscape surrounds you. That’s the inspiration behind the Seiko Presage Cocktail Time ‘Maya Bay’ Limited Edition, a watch that pays homage to one of the most beautiful bays in the world—Maya Bay, a place that has inspired dreamers worldwide. But behind its elegant appearance and natural inspiration lies a highly precise horological mechanism, a perfect balance between aesthetics and functionality.
The case, bracelet and water resistance: discreet robustness
The case of the Presage Cocktail Time ‘Maya Bay’, crafted by Seiko, stands out with its refined design while maintaining notable durability. With a diameter of 40.5 mm and a thickness of 11.8 mm, it wears comfortably yet discreetly. Made from stainless steel, the case ensures strong wear resistance while maintaining a sleek, polished look.
With water resistance up to 50 meters, wearers can enjoy peace of mind even though the watch isn’t intended for diving. The high-quality stainless steel bracelet provides comfort and style, designed with a safety clasp to prevent long-term degradation.
The dial: a dive into Maya Bay’s sea
The dial of this limited edition is a true reflection of Maya Bay’s essence. Its light blue background evokes the Andaman Sea under a sunny sky—a crystalline blue that captures the light with every movement. The shimmering finish of the dial echoes the sparkle of waves under sunlight, creating a unique and hypnotic play of light.
The hands, fine and delicate, are inspired by the stems of cocktail glasses, a direct nod to the Seiko Cocktail Time collection. The second hand, in a deep blue, adds a splash of color that immediately draws the eye. The clean, detailed design is a tribute to the timeless beauty of the place it honors.
The movement: the mechanical soul of the watch
At the heart of the Seiko Presage Cocktail Time ‘Maya Bay’ beats the 4R35 automatic caliber, a movement known for both precision and reliability. While it belongs to Seiko’s entry-level mechanical range, it makes no compromises in performance. The 4R35 offers a 41-hour power reserve, allowing the watch to function for over a day and a half without winding.
Manual winding via the crown is a practical feature for those who prefer keeping their watch ready to wear. The movement also features a hacking seconds function, enabling precise time setting without error.
Availability and price: a limited edition not to miss

It will be available starting November 10, 2025, at authorized Seiko retailers, including major department stores such as Central and Robinson, as well as online at Central Online.
