Seiko Deepens Prospex Watch Line With The Marinemaster Kinetic Direct Drive

I am convinced that Seiko loves their dive watches most of all. Not only do their dive watches get to sample each fragment of new technology that they release, but dive styled watches fall at the bottom and top of Seiko’s watch line from a price perspective. One result is a dizzying array of diving [...]

Seiko SKX013 Modded To Look Like MKII: Inexpensive And Unique Watch Available

Watch modification (aside from switching out straps) is work done only by skilled professionals. This is one of the reasons it fascinates me so much. A lot of the modification work done there is pretty straight forward; swapping out hands, changing colors, switching the dial. Regardless, I am personally utterly in capable of doing any [...]

Grand Seiko Spring Drive GMT Watch Is Japan’s Rolex GMT Master

Everyone is really interested in Seiko’s Spring Drive movement, and what Seiko is going to do with it. The Spring Drive watches that have come out thus far are technologically superior to anything out there regulated by a quartz crystal, but the “Spring Drive” line is aesthetically lacking, and not very interesting to look at.
