Seiko Mechanical Hand-Winding Wristwatches

The Japanese watchmaker Seiko has been producing timepieces since 1924. The company designs and builds the majority of its pieces in-house, particularly when it comes to their high-end lines. Seiko watches contain as many as 100 small, intricate parts that all work together to keep accurate time for the wearer.

What is a mechanical hand-winding wristwatch?

Many of Seiko's collections feature wristwatches that are hand-wound, meaning the wearer must wind the watch daily so that it keeps accurate time. Unlike a quartz watch, which uses a battery, a manual mechanical watch uses a spring that provides energy to the oscillator or balance wheel as it slowly unwinds throughout the day. When the wearer winds the mechanical watch, its spring is rewound, providing the watch with more energy. The dial to wind the spring is usually found on the side of the bezel.

What features do Seiko wristwatches come with?

Depending on the model of Seiko wristwatch you are considering, you may find additional features that may be useful to you, including:

  • Chronographs: These watches provide a stopwatch that you can wear on your wrist. Depending on the watch, you may be able to measure two different time segments simultaneously or consecutively.
  • Calendars: Some watches include a display inside the dial that shows the date, day, and year. A calendar can help wearers coordinate their daily schedules or have easy access to the date if they ever forget.
Which Seiko watches are available?

Seiko offers a number of different collections with varying styles and technology, including:

  • Seiko SARB: This mechanical watch is a mid-range timepiece that uses the Seiko 6R15 movement.
  • Seiko Crown Chronograph: This Seiko watch has a stainless steel case and a stopwatch. It was first released at the 1964 Olympic games in Tokyo.
  • Credor: This high-end line features a combination of traditional Japanese craftsmanship and contemporary technology. Credor timepieces include the Spring Drive Minute Repeater and the Spring Drive Sonnerie, both of which offer glimpses into the watches' workings through cutaways in the dial.
  • Grand Seiko: The first Grand Seiko watch was released in Japan in 1960. A total of 36,000 units were produced. The watch face has nine elements that give it a sleek, stylish appearance, including a highly polished bezel, a half-recessed crown, and a flat dial. The Grand Seiko also features a chronograph.
How do you maintain a Seiko watch?

When wearing a watch, wearers should always be as careful as possible to prevent damage. Wearers should avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures. When the watch is not being worn, it should be kept in its case. In addition to keeping them clean, it is generally recommended that Seiko watches receive professional maintenance once every three to five years.
