By embracing this mantra, Seiko has been responsible for a string of industry-leading advances in the technology of time, such as the world’s first quartz watch, the world’s first TV watch, and the Seiko Kinetic, the first watch ever to generate its own electricity from the movement of the wearer. Seiko are unique in that they manufacture every aspect of every watch in-house, with this ruthless pursuit of perfection even including growing their own quartz crystals and sapphires.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Shippo Enamel Limited Edition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShippo is a particular type of enamel that was developed in Japan in the 17th century. Its main difference from porcelain enamel lies in the way it is polished after firing, a process that is particularly challenging on a watch dial that is no more than 1 mm high. The Presage Shippo enamel dial is made by Ando Cloisonne, a specialist manufacturer in Nagoya with over 100 years of history. Craftsman Wataru Totani paints the glaze by hand onto the surface of the dial. To ensure that the dials comply with Seiko’s high ecological and safety standards as well as the EU’s RoHS Directive, he uses a lead-free glaze specially developed for these watches. The dial is then fired at 800 degrees Celsius. The painting and firing processes are repeated several times to ensure the evenness of the enamel. Only when Totani is completely satisfied is the dial polished so that the delicate pattern emerges and a perfect, smooth surface is achieved.","brand":"Seiko","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51503615279445,"sku":"SPB075J1","price":1551.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0951\/3720\/2517\/files\/104626195.png?v=1758517406","url":"https:\/\/www.watchnation.com\/en-de\/products\/seiko-presage-blue-crocodile-limited-edition-automatic-mens-watch-spb075j1","provider":"WatchNation","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
