Always One Step Ahead of the Rest
Since the beginning of Seiko in 1881, the company has continued to innovate in line with founder Kintaro Hattori’s philosophy to be "Always one step ahead of the rest." In 1924, the company introduced the first wristwatch with “Seiko” on the dial, signifying the beginning of the Seiko brand. With 2024 marking the 100th anniversary of this landmark event, the celebration includes a special creation from the Presage collection that pays homage to this milestone.
Flip the watch over, where you'll discover the caseback bearing not just Mr. Hattori's own philosophy, but also the trademark “S” that the founder registered in 1900 as a symbol of the Seikosha factory. This new watch revives the form and design of the original Seiko wristwatch in every detail. The round case and box-shaped sapphire crystal are carefully constructed to retain the elegance of the original. The crown also carries the trademark "S".
The Seiko letters at the 12 o’clock position take the wearer back in time by recalling the distinctive typeface of that era, and the Arabic numerals pay homage to the original, incorporating both thick and slender lines to create a bold and dynamic font. The creation is powered by the new Caliber 6R5H, which features a 24-hour sub-dial at the six o’clock position.
Just as with the 1924 original, the new watch features an enamel dial whose depth and beauty are made possible thanks to master craftsman Mitsuru Yokosawa and his colleagues, who specialize in enamel production. Thanks to the time-honored enamel dial- making, a striking white appearance will endure for years to come. Set against the pristine white enamel dial, the retro-styled blue hands capture the vintage feel of the original.
The watch features movable lugs and a pull-through leather strap, which was common at the time of the original watch’s release. They have been crafted to ensure the comfort and durability necessary today.
