The degree of development of technology in Japan is striking in its inaccessibility and continuous improvement. Manufacturers of Japanese watches surpass all others not only in power and innovative approach, but also in a special design that has futuristic and classic features at the same time. The Japanese brand Seiko has been producing accessories with a powerful mechanism for more than 100 years, and women's wrist watches from the brand are a model of refinement.

Brand history

In 1881, Kintaro Hattori, a watchmaker from Japan, decided to open a small workshop for the manufacture and repair of watch movements in one of the small areas of Tokyo. Initially, the workshop specialized in wall clocks, but with the development and gaining popularity among people, Hattori set about creating his first pocket pieces. In 1892 the workshop was transformed into a full-fledged company Seikosha, which is translated from the Japanese "exact".

Kintaro and the ten watchmakers working in his factory did not plan to stop there, the brand continued to develop and powerful and reliable chronometers for hand wear were created within the company. It was a real breakthrough that turned the small business of a single Japanese master into a real strong corporation.

In 1913, a wristwatch model was introduced in Japan as Laurel. Clock Received many positive reviews and the first manifestations of a common interest in the Japanese brand.

In 1929, the company became the representative of the Japanese National Railway, the so-called "railway clock". At present, pocket chronometers are still being installed on the dashboards of Japanese locomotives, thereby maintaining the established tradition.

In 1960, Grand Seiko wrist chronometers were manufactured, which are highly accurate. They gained primacy among luxury watches in Japan, beating many chronometers from Swiss manufacturers with technical indicators.

Continuing to rapidly become the leaders of the watch market, in 1964, the company released a quartz portable chronograph, received the status of the official timekeeper at the Olympic Games in Tokyo. After that, the whole world learned about Seiko watches.

The creator of the company has always strived for leadership, confidently leading its brand to success. Using only the latest technology, Hattori managed to gain a foothold at the top of the innovative Olympus and remain one of the most progressive companies from its inception to the present.

Features and benefits

A particular advantage enjoyed by Seiko watches is the increased durability of the movement. It is enhanced using automatic power generation technology. This technology is used to create a quartz watch and is to rid the mechanism of excessive friction and rotation.

The fewer moving moving parts, the longer the mechanism will last. A kind of conversion of kinetic energy into electricity. That is why the high cost of Japanese watches is fully justified - they will last for many years, unlike other mechanisms that break much faster.

It should be noted that the manufacture and disposal of Seiko products do not harm the environment, and the company supports the strategy of caring for the environment. This has a beneficial effect on the company's image.

Types and models
