For your consideration: an Aqua-Not! A Seiko-powered automatic three hand sports watch with unworn rubber bracelet, brand new, just $199 shipped! The inspiration for this one is obvious: this is an homage to the famous Patek Phillipe 5158 Aquanaut. The Genta-inspired case design is 42mm and the crystal here is sapphire and unscratchable. The "Khaki Green" rubber strap is uncut and unworn, and inside ticks Seiko's workhorse, hacking and handwinding automatic NH35 movement. The watch is brand new and running like a dream, with no marks on the case, crystal or strap, and I've priced the whole watch at roughly one-third the MSRP of the Patek's strap by itself. Legacy Swiss design, at Seiko prices. This killer homage can be shipped to your door, CONUS, along with a personalized haiku from yours truly, for just $199 (paypal, f&f). I have over 250 transactions here on Watchex with perfect feedback, so buy with confidence.

	Established:	1881

	Country of Origin:	Japan

The company was founded in 1881, when Kintarō Hattori opened a watch and jewelry shop called "K. Hattori" (服部時計店 Hattori Tokeiten?) in the Ginza area of Tokyo, Japan. Eleven years later, in 1892, he began to produce clocks under the name Seikosha (精工舎 Seikōsha?), meaning roughly "House of Exquisite Workmanship". According to Seiko's official company history, titled "A Journey In Time: The Remarkable Story of Seiko" (2003), Seiko is a Japanese word meaning "exquisite" or "success" ("exquisite" is usually written 精巧 from Chinese jīngqiǎo, while the meaning "success" is usually written 成功 from Chinese chénggōng).

Seiko is perhaps best known for its wristwatches, all of which were at one time produced entirely in-house. This includes not only major items such as microgears, motors, hands, crystal oscillators, batteries, sensors, LCDs but also minor items such as the oils used in lubricating the watches and the luminous compounds used on the hands and the dials.
