The Seiko watch company was formed in Japan in 1881 at that time under the name of K. Hattori. It began life as a clock repair company, after eleven years of trading it produced its first wall clock. A few years later the companies first pocket watch was produced. The Seiko pocket watch was appointed in 1929 as Japans National Railway official ‘railway watch’. It was chosen because of its accuracy despite having to deal with the discomforts of train rides.

Seiko watches have gone from strength to strength as their focus is on high quality and affordable time pieces. Today the company is still owned by the same family who strive to attain the same high values placed on the corporation by K. Hattori. In 1953 Seiko were the first company to advertise on Japanese television. The advert was for Seiko alarm clocks, featuring a chicken winding up an alarm clock! They advertised their alarm clocks under their previous name of Seiko-sha meaning ‘the house of precision’.

Seiko began by making all of their watches by hand. They utilised technology as it advanced towards mechanised manufacture of watches. Today Seiko use machines to manufacture many of their watches but they remain true to their roots and still have a high number of exceptionally skilled watchmakers that make some of the ranges by hand. In 1969 Seiko broke new ground in the watch industry, a move that is still setting the way for modern watch production. The Seiko Quartz Astron watch was the first quartz watch in the world. Quartz technology meant that watches could use a battery rather than being wound up and the time displayed was regulated by the electromagnetic properties of quartz. This revolutionary technology is the most common time keeping method in wrist watches today.

Seiko followed up the release of this technology by creating the worlds first six digit LCD quartz Seiko watch , and later by the introduction of the world’s first multi-function digital watch. The list of Seiko world firsts is impressive. They have created a large number of epoch making watches that have completely revolutionised the watch industry. These developments include introducing the worlds first TV watch, a first kinetic watch, (powered by the motion of the wearer), a first computerized divers watch, the first watch powered by thermo-electric (powered by the heat of the wearer) and many many more.

Seikos impressive heritage has given their watches a global following and prominent place at the forefront of the watch industry. Seiko watches offer the best of precision technology at an affordable price. They are known for their strong commitment to furthering research and design and due to this they will remain a key brand in the watch world for the foreseeable future.

Accurist are a quintessential British watch brand, a ‘timeless British classic’, started in 1947 by Asher and Rebecca Loftus who felt that the U.K. watch market needed diversifying.

They decided to design and make high quality watches from Swiss components that looked good and performed well but would be competitively priced. The brand took off and became part of the nations consciousness through a series of advertisements broadcast during ‘Saturday Night at the London Palladium’, one of the most viewed television programs of its day.

Accurist watches became synonymous with vibrant 1960’s fashion when they released a range called ‘Old England’. But there was nothing traditional about these new watches, they were brightly coloured, oversized contemporary time pieces that were seen on the wrists of key players in the fabulous the 1960’s fashion scene. The Beatles, Twiggy and Princess Anne were just a few of these celebrities that were seen to wear Accurist watches, inspiring millions of people worldwide to own one of these stylish Accurist watches.

Accurist did not stop there. In the 1970’s, after the invention of digital quartz technology they created a range of LCD digital quartz watches that were so modern they became the official watch for pilots of the newly launched Concorde aircraft.

You may have recently seen an advertisement on television for Accurist watches featuring the legendary John Cleese looking rather youthful. It is a rework of an multi award winning advert (including the prestigious Palm d’Or Advertising Award) that was released in the 1970’s. The now famous ‘accu-ankle, accu-wrist’ sketch has been relaunched to give new viewers a chance to enjoy this great ad.

The list of Accurist Watches ’s world firsts goes on…they became the first ever sponsors of British Telecom’s speaking clock which has received over 3 billion calls since 1986, causing them to describe Accurist watches as ‘the standard by which all watches are set’. They were the first watch brand to receive the National Association of Goldsmiths Award of Excellence, in recognition of their multiple contributions to the watch industry. In 1993 the Royal Observatory at Greenwich was renovated.

In 1884 this observatory was designated as 0 degrees longitude making it the starting point for every global day. Accurist are the first and only watch brand to be associated with this historical observatory. They provided it with a new atomic clock, an exceptionally accurate form of timekeeping, which officially records the time in the world. It was the clock that all the TV cameras were pointed at when 1999 gave way for the new millennium.

Accurist also have a strong commitment to their customers, in 2001 this earned them another prestigious award, the Customer Service Award at the UK Jewellery award ceremony. The Accurist brand is in the control of a young, dynamic and forward thinking management team which we hope will mean even more great things for the brand in upcoming years.

Accurist Watches have a reputation for designing and creating world class watches, if you look at our collection of Accurist watches you will see why. Accurist have won multiple awards for innovation and customer service, making the brand a timeless British classic – the standard by which all watches are set.

I do not want to always be the snooper of in the Omega watches window. I had heard a lot about replica watches over the years and decided this may be the way to go I made some trade-off for online replica watches website. in general I need to make sure to buy my first Omega watches at an replica watches authorized dealer or at least a very reputable secondary market dealer.

This minimizes the chance of inadvertently buying a replica watch instead of a genuine. In some cases an inexperienced seller might not even know they’re offering a counterfeit watch since there is a lot of reselling going on sites such as eBay.

Also, just because a watch is offered at a great price doesn’t make it a deal. There’s never a free lunch; if the price is off the market norm there may be a reason.

Finally, I chose a replica watches website where I decided to try to buy a luxury watch my life, the process is very smoothly, I got – an Omega Planet Ocean Chronograph! I ordered my watch and when it arrived my jaw literally dropped. It looked exactly like the real watch that I had looked at and tried on so many times in the jewelry shop. When I picked it up it weighed the same and every detail was in place. I wear the watch every day and I feel good about my purchase. Luxury to me is having the look that you want, it doesn’t matter that it is a replica, especially since no one else knows but me!

Sometimes wearing the right luxury watch at the right time can make all the difference you need in your life. Nowadays it is hard to find a man or a woman, who does not wish to look different and to show the unique style. Watches today become one of the most popular objects of attention.

That is why a lot of middle-class people want to modifies the appearance in order to conceal the wearer’s identity by means of good-looking watches or watches by the famous brands. Sometimes life just to do a little bit of change, our hearts will become very satisfied!

If you are considering buying a watch you would be well advised to determine its water resistance rating before you purchase it.  Watches always have their water resistance rating on the case, if you are buying online you should find this information in the product specifications.

Most of the customers that I speak to do not have a firm grasp of the differences between the ratings in part because of the different ways that the same information is recorded.  You are likely to come across these three ways of denoting water resistance; bar, atmosphere or meter. 1 Bar = 1 Atmosphere = 10m.

It is important to remember that unless a watch is a specified professional divers watch it is probably unsuitable for prolonged use in the water.  Watches are tested for water resistance in static laboratory conditions for short periods.  The result of this is that a 10m rating does not necessarily mean that the watch will endure being taken to that depth, it is merely indicative of the pressure the watch can withstand in still conditions.

Water Resistance Ratings

Some watches have only minimal water resistance, they will be marked simply ‘water resistant’.  If this is the case then the watch will be splash proof but nothing more, meaning that it should not be worn whilst washing up or showering. If you need a watch that can be used for these everyday tasks it would be better to go with a watch with a water resistance rating of at least 30m.  Watches within this category are not suitable for swimming.

The next common rating of water resistance is 50m or 5 atmosphere. These watches are suitable for swimming but not for diving as the pressure at the moment of impact with the water would exceed 5 atmosphere. If you want to do more than just swim you need a watch with a 100m rating. A watch within this classification is appropriate for everyday swimming, watersports and diving, but must not be used for high board or scuba diving.

A watch within the 200m water resistant class can be used for most water sports. If you are searching specifically for a divers watch, it is imperative that you check that the watch complies with international standards for divers watches.  Generally the word ‘divers’ will be imprinted on the case back of the watch.  There are higher classifications of water resistance, 300m or more. In principle the higher the water resistance rating the more durable the watch will be, although this is dependant on the quality of manufacture.

Tips for Maintaining Water Resistance

Water resistance can be compromised if the buttons and stem are not screwed down or pressed in correctly.   It is also advisable to have your watch pressure tested after the battery is changed, in order to be assured the water resistance has been maintained.  The most common way to do this is to return your watch to the manufacturer for the battery change.

Do not immediately worry if your watch has traces of condensation underneath the glass.  This can occur during a dramatic temperature change, for example diving in to cold water.  Normally the condensation will disperse without any intervention after a number of hours.  If it does not I would advise returning your watch to the manufacturer to be examined.
