Brand heritage

Seiko traces its history to 1881, when Kintaro Hattori opened his shop in Tokyo, and it is one of the few watchmakers that makes its own movements. The Seiko 5 line, launched in the 1960s, was built around five features: automatic winding, a day-date display, water resistance, a durable case and a durable bracelet. The calibre 7S26, introduced in the mid-1990s, became one of the best known Seiko automatic movements.
