Made by hand for
those who value perfection
What lies at the heart of every Grand Seiko is expert craftsmanship. As one of the world's true watch manufacturers, Grand Seiko combines cutting-edge technology and masterful craftsmanship to create timepieces that are at the pinnacle of quality. High-precision parts are adjusted by hand to tolerances of one-hundredth of a millimetre, to yield masterpieces that are worthy of the most discerning eyes.
King of Watches. The Strength of a Lion.
The lion has been the symbol of Grand Seiko for nearly six decades. It reflects the ambition of the original Grand Seiko team to make a watch that was as precise, durable and beautiful as could be and reveals the intensity of their determination. They defined their goal as making the ’king of watches’, and so it was that the lion mark came to symbolize the inner strength of Grand Seiko.
