A series of limited edition timepieces are to be released by watchmaker Seiko as a way of celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Grand Seiko standard.The collection will be limited to just 800 pieces, of which these will be divided up into designs using Spring Drive, mechanical and quartz features, Professional Jeweller has reported.Each timepiece will be marked with the fact that they celebrate a landmark for the company, as a lion emblem will be present on either the dial or, in the case of both the Spring Drive and mechanical products, the oscillating weight.Furthermore, consumers lucky enough to get their hands on these analogue watches will also be treated to a 72-hour power reserve and a second accuracy of between minus one and plus five per day.Seiko honoured the standard, which is celebrating its half century in the industry, by saying: "From the very first Grand Seiko watch in 1960 until the all-new 36,000 vph automatic caliber of today, every Grand Seiko watch has shared the functional beauty and design purity that are now its hallmark."Recently, Hodinkee reported that the whole range of products from Seiko, which also includes radio and digital watches, offer buyers elegance and a sense of craftsmanship.

Sometimes I feel that I am alone on this one, but I just looked over at the and I couldn’t help thinking that I probably never can buy a Seiko watch. I consider myself as a complete watchnut and I even consider myself to at least have some knowledge about wristwatches and buying a Seiko or other Japanese watch really doesn’t fit in. This goes for new and vintage Seikos, but especially the new ones.Although I have thought a lot about the popular Seiko Divers watches, or a nice Seiko 5 automatic lowcost watch, just for fun, but I still rather spend the money on an exclusive leather strap for one of my Swiss and German built watches. It is like a Japanese car I think, perfect cars, nothing wrong with them… but I would never buy them. Just a matter of taste and preferences I guess. Maybe it is the lack of identity, it could be Toyota, but when I look a bit closer, it may be a Nissan or Honda as well. European watches are like European cars I guess. You can identify most of them from miles distance, and every now and then.. they break down What do you think? Are you a Seiko collector/lover?
