Established in 1881, Seiko has contributed to society with one revolutionary product after another-starting with the production of Japan’s first wrist watch in 1913 and including the creation of the world’s first quartz watch in 1969. Seiko has also been the official time keeper at many international sporting events since the Tokyo Olympic Games in 1964. Today, while watches remain the heart of Seiko’s business, its technological expertise in micro-engineering, metallurgy and mechatronics has caused the company to expand into many diverse fields. In 2001, in order to be better able to offer even more attractive products to consumers around the world, Seiko’s watch division became an independent company, Seiko Watch Corporation.
