High-end brands that call Japan home include Seiko, Grand Seiko, Credor, Casio, and Orient. Frankly, that’s ridiculous as Japan is also home to excellent watchmakers and designers.
Some watch snobs feel that if a watch isn’t Swiss-made, it’s not a good watch. Over the years this Japanese-based company has become a watchmaking powerhouse. By 1930, it developed into a collaboration between Swiss and Japanese watchmakers. The History of Citizen Watchesīack in 1918 watchmaker Randolphe Schmid registered the company in Switzerland for watches he sold in Japan. Today, you can pick up a Citizen watch that’s powered by light and depending upon the model you buy, can quickly update its time to over 43 international cities via atomic timekeeping, satellite technology or soundwaves. To put that in perspective, this means it’s possible people were checking the time on watches not so different from the analog watches you can buy today, prior to putting on suits of armor and actually going to besiege a castle. While Citizen has been improving watch technology, and are always on the cutting edge of innovation, most watches are frightening similar to the first pocket watches of the mid-1500s.
