Seiko: Japanese watchmaking between tradition and innovation since 1881
The story of Seiko begins in 1881, when a young entrepreneur, Kintaro Hattori, opened a modest watch repair shop in Tokyo. The brand quickly became known for its pioneering spirit, seeking to push the boundaries of watchmaking to compete with the greatest Swiss brands. This path of innovation led Seiko to create its first mechanical timepiece in 1895, then to revolutionize the industry with watches of unmatched precision and reliability.
The major turning point comes in 1969 with the introduction of the first quartz watch in the world, the Seiko Quartz Astron, which forever changes the standards of precision in watchmaking. Seiko continues to innovate with technologies such as the Spring Drive, a hybrid movement offering the fluidity of a mechanical movement with the precision of quartz, and the Kinetic, a mechanism that generates energy from wrist movements, eliminating the need for traditional batteries.
