Seiko Watches

The story of SEIKO begins in 1881 when Kintaro Hattori founded a clock repair store in central Tokyo. Just eleven years later his company made its first clock and, in 1895, its first watch.
Today, with Kintaro's great grandson, Shinji Hattori as President, SEIKO Watch Corporation is still dedicated to the perfection that the founder always strove to achieve.
Seiko is responsible for many of the “world’s firsts” in the watch industry. They were the first in the world to offer a quartz watch, the first to design a multi-function quartz watch, and the world's first automatic power generating (A.G.S) quartz watch, later known as 'Kinetic.'
