Seiko lists both as Asia-Pacific limited editions. The official Australia-English listings show 3,000 pieces and AUD 925 for HCB010, and 3,500 pieces and AUD 950 for HCB011.
How HCB010 and HCB011 differ
The clearest distinction is the styling and band. A specialist report describes HCB010 as green-dial with gold-tone details and HCB011 as pink-dial with rose-gold-tone details and a brown strap; Seiko’s product pages identify the band materials but do not specify every color detail in their written specifications.

Shared specifications and practical meaning
Case size and construction
Both references use a 40.5 mm stainless-steel case, measure 11.8 mm thick and span 47.5 mm from lug to lug, with 20 mm lug spacing. Each has a box-shaped Hardlex crystal and a see-through screw case back. The matching dimensions make the band and appearance the main listed differences, rather than the underlying case format.
#1 Best Overall
- STUNNING BLUE DIAL: this automatic men's watch features a deep blue, pressed pattern and gloss finish surrounded by a stainless steel watch case
- AUTOMATIC: these self-winding, automatic men's watches are powered by your movement, with a power reserve of 41 hours
- STAINLESS STEEL: features a durable stainless steel watch case and bracelet with see through caseback
- WATER-RESISTANT: these men's wrist watches are water-resistant down to 50 meters
- 4R35 CALIBER: equipped with the reliable caliber 4R35 automatic movement, this accurate men's watch keeps precise time
Movement and functions
Both are powered by Seiko’s 4R35, an automatic movement that can also be wound manually, with an approximately 41-hour power reserve. Seiko lists a date display and stop-second-hand function for each, plus magnetic resistance of 4,800 A/m.
Water resistance
The stated rating is 5 bar. That is a water-resistance specification, not a claim that either watch is a dive watch; follow Seiko’s use and care guidance for exposure to water.
What the limited-edition and price details establish
Seiko’s Australia-English product listings give HCB010 a quantity of 3,000 pieces at AUD 925 and HCB011 a quantity of 3,500 pieces at AUD 950. These are Australian displayed prices, not universal prices or a confirmed price for every market. The listings identify the watches as Asia-Pacific limited editions, but do not set out a complete country-by-country release schedule or confirm current stock.

Which one makes more sense for you?
- Choose HCB010 if you prefer the green-and-gold-tone look and a stainless-steel bracelet.
- Choose HCB011 if you prefer the pink-and-rose-gold-tone look and a brown cow-leather band.
- Consider the edition size and local price only after checking the listing in your market; the quantities and AUD prices above are specific to Seiko’s Australian pages.
Seiko describes Cocktail Time dials at collection level as “vibrant, glossy dials reminiscent of colorful cocktails.” That description characterizes the line; it does not identify a specific cocktail inspiration for either HCB010 or HCB011. Seiko’s US Cocktail Time collection page uses that wording.
