Great style and excellent legibility go hand in hand in this midsized all steel watch from Seiko. The round steel case highlights a textured black dial offering three-hand function with luminous hands for nighttime visibility, a silvertone numeral 12, and silvertone baton markers. The dial is capped with a durable and scratch-resistant Hardlex crystal and framed by a stationary steel bezel with notched accents. A handsome steel link bracelet completes the look, fastening securely with a single-locking foldover clasp. This Seiko watch is powered by precise Japanese quartz movement and is rated water resistant to 50 meters. 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.
