Seiko Brands and Sub-Brands

I'm working on a series of posts for assorted sub-brands of Seiko, and thought I would ask for help from all Seiko lovers here.

Let's not make it impossible by adding start/stop dates, just names that appear on a watch which you know is a Seiko, ok?

This is our collaborative updated list:

Excellent Seiko post. ALBA has a small typo.

By: agyzace : July 23rd, 2018-21:35

Also, I always wondered what was its difference to Pulsar, as at some point they were used for the same watches.
All the best,
Alex

King Seiko

There is also King Seiko in all their Variations, especially the Vanac-Series, with their strange 70ies facetted Crystals and funky colorful dials.

Appreciate the help

The King Seiko is added and from the ALABA I have subtracted an A.

Thanks for your help.

Let's see if we can come up with any others?

How do you classify Orient?

By: jomni1 : July 25th, 2018-16:01

Not a Seiko (sub-brand) but same parent company.

Is Age of Discovery series counted?

login to reply

Orient is not a Seiko brand, in my opinion.

By: cazalea : July 25th, 2018-18:08

The others so far yes.

Age of Discovery is an interesting question. I had a few of them, both pocket and wristwatches; simple and complicated.

I’m going to say Yes.

Thanks,

Mike
