The history of Seiko and its evolution in the world of watches is a fascinating journey through innovation, precision and continuous progress. Since its foundation in 1881 by Kintaro Hattori in Ginza, Tokyo, Seiko has become one of the world's most renowned watch brands, with a name synonymous with quality, reliability and technological sophistication.

Seiko's roots go back to a time when Japan was in transition to modernity. Kintaro Hattori opened a shop in Tokyo in 1881 at the age of 21, specialising in the repair and sale of watches. Seiko, which means "precision" or "accuracy" in Japanese, endeavoured to push the boundaries of watchmaking from the very beginning. An important milestone was the introduction of Japan's first wristwatch in 1913 - the Laurel. This event not only marked Seiko's entry into wristwatch production, but also a step towards technological innovation and design excellence. The Laurel was not only a timepiece, but also a symbol of Seiko's endeavour to combine traditional watchmaking with modern technology.

Innovation and technical breakthroughs

Seiko continued its development and achieved several technological breakthroughs in the following decades that revolutionised the watch industry. In the 1950s, Seiko introduced the first movement in Japan, called "Seiko Marvel", which represented a significant advance in automatic watch technology. This movement laid the foundation for Seiko's reputation as a pioneer in automatic watch technology and a leader in precision and reliability. This technological leadership culminated in 1960 with the introduction of the Grand Seiko, a line of watches that epitomised precision and craftsmanship.

The Grand Seiko epitomised Seiko's pursuit of perfection down to the smallest detail, with a mechanical movement that offered remarkable accuracy and a long power reserve. This timepiece was not only a sign of technological superiority, but also a symbol of Japanese craftsmanship and precision labour.

Over the years, Seiko has repeatedly demonstrated its innovative strength, particularly in the areas of quartz technology and kinetic energy generation. The introduction of the Seiko Astron in 1969 marked the birth of the world's first quartz watch, which triggered a revolution in the watch industry and redefined the precision and reliability of wristwatches. Later, Seiko developed kinetic technology, which uses the wearer's movement to generate and store the watch's energy, resulting in a more sustainable and environmentally friendly power source for watches. In the 21st century, Seiko is focusing on further developing mechanical movements and integrating advanced materials such as titanium and ceramic to produce watches that offer not only technological innovation but also aesthetic sophistication.  The evolution of the Grand Seiko line and the introduction of new collections such as Prospex and Presage have further strengthened Seiko's position as a leading watch brand. Seiko's global presence and heritage

Today, Seiko is a globally recognised brand known for its versatility in design and technology. From classic ladies' watches to rugged sports and diving watches, Seiko offers a wide range of models to meet the needs and preferences of watch enthusiasts around the world. The brand remains true to its heritage and continuously strives for perfection and innovation. By combining traditional Japanese craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology, Seiko continues to set the standard for precision, reliability and design in the watch industry. With a clear view to the future, Seiko remains an icon of watchmaking and a symbol of the relentless pursuit of excellence.
