Seiko's Enduring Legacy: A Passion for Timekeeping Excellence
Kintaro Hattori's vision for Seiko has become a reality, fueled by a consuming passion for excellence that is deeply ingrained in the company's DNA. For over 125 years, Seiko has been committed to the art and science of timekeeping, driving a "quiet revolution" that has transformed the principles of time measurement.
The Seiko Recraft Series exemplifies this legacy of innovation. Powered by the movement of the wearer's wrist, this automatic watch boasts an energy-efficient movement with a power reserve of approximately 41 hours. Crafted with a stainless steel case and bracelet, the Recraft Series timepiece features a green dial, a convenient day/date calendar, and a screw-down see-through case back. With a water resistance of 50 meters, this watch can withstand everyday wear and tear, as well as light water activities.
Seiko's commitment to excellence extends beyond the Recraft Series. The company's history is marked by a series of groundbreaking innovations that have shaped the world of timekeeping. In 1969, Seiko introduced the Seiko Astron, the world's first quartz wristwatch, exponentially improving the accuracy of wristwatches and establishing Seiko's technology as the standard in Olympic and sports timing.
The company's pioneering spirit continued with the introduction of Kinetic technology in 1984. Kinetic watches are powered by the wearer's movements, combining the accuracy of quartz with the convenience of automatic winding. This technology has paved the way for numerous world's firsts, including the Kinetic Chronograph, the Kinetic Auto Relay, and the Kinetic Perpetual, which combines the date perfect technology of a perpetual calendar with the genius of Kinetic Auto Relay.
The latest innovation in the Kinetic line is the Kinetic Direct Drive, which allows the wearer to power the watch automatically through movement or by hand-winding, providing a real-time display of the power being generated.
Seiko's commitment to excellence is evident in its diverse product offerings, catering to a wide range of customers and occasions. From the durable and water-resistant men's watches to the sleek and timeless timepieces, Seiko's dedication to the art and science of timekeeping is evident in every detail.
As Seiko continues to push the boundaries of innovation, it remains true to its roots, drawing inspiration from its humble beginnings in a 19th-century Tokyo clock shop. This heritage of dedication, coupled with a passion for excellence, has established Seiko as a leader in the realm of fine watches, where time is measured by the company's unwavering commitment to the art and science of timekeeping.
