History

Created in Japan in 1881, this brand grew into the empire it is today from small roots. Easily one of the most popular names in mens watches, Seiko was the company that brought us the first watch with the Swiss quartz movement. Then, as if that wasn’t enough for them, they brought us the even more popular chronograph watch.

Being the pioneers that they are in the watch industry, Seiko has become even more technologically advanced and has brought new movements, functions and styles to us. With the ability to have a watch that runs without a battery and still uses the ever reliable Swiss quartz movement for other models, Seiko has brought us choices that we need in watch function, design, and innovations.

Movement

Seiko Velatura watches offer the already proven efficient quartz direct drive movement. This is one of the newer movements and it is a kinetic direct drive. Considered one of the diver’s timepieces, this watch is water resistant and should easily withstand depths up to 200 meters deep.

Style

Offering style that is both attractive and simple, this timepiece is more sporty than some. With the chronograph, you can time your runs, dives, or any other event. The stainless steel bracelet and casing are sturdy and elegant. You can also have your choice as to what style of this watch you get. You can choose from the stainless steel bracelet, a black rubber bracelet, or a leather bracelet. As a result, the fashion statement is all yours with this mens watch.

What They are Known for

They are known for being among the best in diving watches. With the submersible water resistant feature making it possible to go up to 200 meters under water, you will be able to use this fully functional watch for all your diving needs.

They has been the keeper of time for many of the biggest sporting events in the world. With the confidence of something as huge as keeping the time for the Olympic Games and the World Cup Games being placed on them, they have proven time and time again that they are the best.

They have achieved the reputation of being first. They were the first to make a quartz timepiece, the first to make a chronograph model, and now they have become the first to make one that can run without the help of a battery or the necessity of winding while storing energy for days at a time. Being at the forefront of watch innovations has been what this company has done from the early days, and now with the Seiko Velatura watch, they have come even further.

Seiko has been made number one because they have been at the forefront of so many important watch creations. There is no place for something that doesn’t work, and with this company, you not only get a watch that works, you get one that works better.
