When speaking of a Seiko watch, every watch lover would instantly relate to a promising quality. This Japanese watchmaker has presented to the world a number of significant inventions and masterpieces that have influenced the whole industry. To understand how amazing its watches are, we should have a peek into its history of watchmaking journey. 

Flashing back to the year 1881, the esteemed watch company Seiko was first founded by the capable entrepreneur Kintaro Hattori, originally as a watch selling and repairing shop. With his strategies and good relationship with business partners, the company had grown steadily and paved the way for its later great success. 

Led by the consistent growth of the business, Seiko then took the next step and set up a factory “Seikosha” to develop its own timepieces. Its name Seiko refers to "exquisite" and “beautiful” in Japanese and "Sha" refers to “house”. As suggested by the name, Seiko began manufacturing its own clocks with exceptional watchmaking traditions and craftsmanship. 

From the Seiko wall clocks to the pocket watches which were produced later, the Seiko timepieces had gained high recognition in the market in Japan. However, the Great Kanto Earthquake had brought its factory down to dust. The company had to rebuild everything from scratch. The determination of the founder Kintaro Hattori did not give up and he continued his strive to deliver the best watches to the world. 

To search for breakthroughs from the difficulties of the restart, the company produced the first Seiko wristwatch in December 1923. Catering to the needs of mobile timepieces of the market, the highly precise Seiko wristwatches had successfully gained popularity and brought success to the company. The Seiko brand has further built its name out loud and proven its status in watchmaking in Japan when a Seiko pocket watch was officially acclaimed as a railway watch by the National Railway.

Regarded as the brand of innovations, Seiko has been distributing several groundbreaking inventions on watchmaking. On top of Japan, Seiko has further spread its name to the world when its first automatic Chronograph was introduced in 1964. Despite being in the era when Swiss watchmakers were occupying the whole watch market, people started to notice this amazing Japanese brand. 

While enjoying the success brought by its automatic chronograph watches, Seiko didn’t cease to prepare another “world’s first”. In 1969, the brand launched the world’s first quartz wristwatch, the Seiko Quartz Astron watch. And a few decades later Seiko introduced the second Astron watch as the world’s first GPS solar watch. Undoubtedly Seiko is one of the pioneers in the horology world.
