(Detailed Information)
This is a Seiko stopwatch. Seiko is a renowned Japanese watch brand, boasting over 130 years of history since its founding as Hattori Clock Shop in 1881. Under the philosophy of its founder, Kintaro Hattori, Always one step ahead of the times, the company has produced numerous innovative products. In the late 1960s, during Japan's period of high economic growth, Seiko expanded onto the world stage by dominating the top positions in Swiss observatory competitions, becoming Japan's leading watch manufacturer. At that time, Seiko stopwatches were highly regarded for their exceptional accuracy achieved through meticulous assembly and adjustment, leading to the adoption of the 89ST as an official Olympic timing device, demonstrating its reliability. This model is the 88ST. The dial is a beautiful white, and the combination with black hands provides excellent visibility, creating a stopwatch with a wonderful atmosphere. The crown located in the center of the top of the case winds the mainspring. Pressing it also operates the start, stop, and restart functions. The push button next to the crown is the reset button for returning the minute and second hands to zero. The size, thickness, dial design, and other features offer the unique charm of analog that is absent in current digital stopwatches, making this a supreme masterpiece.
