More than 100 years ago, Seiko produced the first wristwatch made in Japan and the tradition of Seiko’s craftsmanship was born. Today, this tradition continues to thrive, thanks to the skill and passion of the craftsmen and women in whose hands Seiko’s mechanical watches are assembled, adjusted and inspected.
This long tradition and high level of craftsmanship were the keys to the creation of the Presage collection of fine mechanical watches. From the adjustment of the escapement to the polishing of the cases, it is the handcraft skill of our watchmakers that sets the high standards of Seiko Presage. Inspection by eye also plays a key role and only after a vigorous quality appraisal is the watchmaker’s task complete.
From its very first watch in 1913 to the very latest creations of today, Seiko has continuously honed its skills, increased the precision of its manufacturing and developed new ideas and components in our own, uniquely Japanese style. The source of our strength, then and now, is our craftsmanship. For the purists who appreciate the finest watchmaking, we proudly present Presage.
