Seiko Watches: Well Built Craftmanship Right On Time
Saturday, October 23rd, 2010Time pieces can be purely functional or works of art in their own right. You see, Seiko women’s watches do more than count the hours. They provide stylish design which may at first overshadow some amazing facts about time keeping. Seiko knows how to draw power from quartz crystals and kinetic energy, along with the prosaic automatic and wind-up options.
Wind-up power in a Seiko is known as Spring Drive. The manual wind feature offers accuracy of minus one or plus one second per day. Enjoy the smooth, quiet movement of time with a new twist on an old-fashioned method.
The Ananta line utilizes this spring drive mechanism in some models, while other models are automatic. Match your watch to your wardrobe: black, silver or both; modern and sleek. The Spring Drive GMT tells you what time it is in England, the borderline of time. A calendar up to the year 2100 lets you think really, really far ahead. The Multi-Hand Automatic displays twenty-nine jewels and indicates the level of power in reserve.
Sporty watches can still reflect sophistication. Look to the Seiko Sportura line to give you the function of stainless steel casing and ten bar water resistance, yet gracefully realized. For your training or racing, men and women might appreciate the timing features, alarms and more. Power your training session kinetically or with the magic of quartz.
Velatura Marine Watches feature a kinetic direct drive which works with body movement. The yachting timer suits recreational sailors, while the professional sailor will be equally impressed. Choose one for the man or the woman in your life. Select the Velatura Date Calendar for sleek, bright design with ten diamonds and a mother of pearl dial. Sailing never looked so beautiful.
Divers require special watches to withstand deep sea pressure. Seiko offers the Diver Chronograph, water resistant to two hundred meters. A screw crown and screw buttons provide added security. You can time your dive with up to two hours of stop watch capacity, while taking advantage of split time measurement. Alternatively, try the 1/100 Second Retrograde Chronographer to measure time in these tiny fractions. The face carries a number of dials, plus four glistening gems.
Arctura refers to a line of watches Seiko has nurtured since 1997. Five months of reserve power make the Kinetic Chronograph a reliable device. Mother of pearl dials and diamonds on these watches provide the glamour, while alarms and stop watches keep you on your toes.
Give new purpose to your elegant accessories with a watch from the Seiko women’s watch Premier series. The Direct Drive Moon Phase lets you mark lunar progress to predict tides or plan a romantic, moonlit picnic. Earthy tones on the two Automatic models distinguish this watch for men from the sleek, metallic watches otherwise featured.
