Seiko is a well-known Japanese watch brand that was established in 1881 at Ginza in Japan. The brand represents high quality and innovative design that has carved a niche for itself in the modern marketplace. The term “Seiko” means exquisite in Japanese, and living up to this definition, Seiko watches are crafted with utmost care to combine technical precision with aesthetic beauty. Quality, precision, innovation and technical superiority are synonymous with “Swiss made” watches. However, the Seiko’s success for more than a century stands testimony to the fact that the brand makes timepieces that are every bit as good as those made by the Swiss watch manufacturers.
Seiko makes excellent timepieces that offer great value for money at every price range. Believe me, they do have a wide range of products to suit every budget. Each of these timepieces are technically superior, built to last using top quality materials but will not burn a hole in your pocket. Use of good quality materials backed by in-house manufacture of movements and components contributes to its historical success.
The Japanese quartz movements were practically invented by Seiko, perhaps a reason why most of their timepieces are quartz and which are of course, very popular. Other lines include watches powered by the Kinetic movement that uses energy generated by the wearer’s wrist and the Spring Drive series which uses a spring powered movement.
Let’s talk about the Seiko watch collections. The Arctura collection combines beauty and style while the Sportura collection features smoothly designed sports watches. The Seiko Astron collection features the intelligent GPS Solar watches while the Seiko Prospex collection is inspired by all types of adventure sports.
Seiko also makes some of the best entry level watches in the Seiko 5 series which are great value for money and understandably the most popular. This is not to say that the brand shies away from offering high end products. Seiko also makes luxury mechanical watches – the Grand Seiko series comes with such astonishing beauty, excellent fit and finish that even watch collectors desire them.
Seiko’s mechanical watches are known to last a lifetime and the quartz timepieces offer superior accuracy. Regular service and maintenance of your Seiko will go a long way in keeping the clock ticking for years to come, such is the quality of a Seiko timepiece. Regardless of the price, each and every Seiko is a top-quality piece.
With Seiko you can find a durable, elegant and good quality watch in any budget. The build quality remains consistent even with the cheaper models. With a wide range available in the high-end models as well as the affordable sports models or even the Seiko daily wear timepieces, you are spoilt for choice.
