About Seiko
In 1877, at the age of 18, Kintaro Hattori set up business
repairing the Western-style clocks that were becoming
increasingly popular in Japan. By 1892, Hattori was manufacturing
his own clocks in a factory he called Seikosha, from the words
"seiko" meaning "exquisite," "success," or "miniature," and "sha"
meaning "house." The company grew and prospered, producing its
first wristwatch in 1913 and launching the Seiko brand in 1924.
Technological innovation has always been a driving force in the
company's history. Key milestones include Seiko's introduction of
the world's first quartz watch in 1969, and its successful
launch, in 1988, of the Kinetic, the world's first battery-free
watch with quartz accuracy. Recognized for its technological
excellence, Seiko has provided timekeeping services for the
Olympic Games and the World Cup Soccer Championships. Today, the
Seiko brand continues to stand for state-of-the-art technology,
as well as superior quality and refined design.
