brand has a long and proud history of making high quality watches. There are

Seiko watches actually began as Seikosha watches in 1881. Kintaro Hattori opened
a clock shop in Tokyo, Japan, and the rest is history. Today, the Seiko
Corporation is the parent company of Seiko of America. Hattori continued his
watch legacy by producing pocket watches in 1895, followed by alarm clocks in
1899, and table and musical clocks in 1902.
By 1914, mass production was introduced to keep up with the supply and demand of
Seikosha watches, and by 1924, Seikosha became Seiko. As the years passed, the
popularity of Seiko watches continued to rise. It became known for its superb
craftmanship and style. In 1968, Seiko watches earned the honor of introducing
the world's first quartz wall clock. Continuing its list of firsts in the watch
world, Seiko marketed the first quartz watch in 1969, and its pioneering efforts
continued by introducing the world's first TV watch. Kinetic technology, which
required no battery change and is powered by the movement of a person's body,
was introduced in 1992. Today, Seiko continues to offer beautiful watches with
style, class, and high performance, as well as unsurpassed technology. The Seiko
