About SEIKO HOUSE

Seiko’s predecessor, Kintaro Hattori opens a shop selling and repairing watches and clocks in Ginza 4-chome in 1894. At that time, the founder, Kintaro Hattori, insisted on installing a clock tower on the roof of the building as a service to the people of Ginza.
Later, as a symbol of Tokyo’s reconstruction after the Great Kanto Earthquake, a new building was completed on this site in 1932, and it, too, featured a clock tower. For almost a century it has stood through disasters both natural and man-made, and has become a familiar landmark in Ginza. Today, the Wako building, with its iconic clock tower, is perhaps the most easily recognizable symbol of this world-famous shopping district.

In 2022, to mark the 90th anniversary of this edifice, Seiko will launch a new project, building on the legacy of this historic location, the very origin of the company, to provide a platform dedicated to Japanese technology and craftsmanship. Here, at SEIKO HOUSE, we will focus not on the past, but on the future, looking at how cutting-edge technology and the eternal spirit of Japanese craftsmanship will create a more exciting and more sustainable world in the years to come.

In order to achieve this goal, we will redevelop the main Wako building in Ginza, which is owned by our company, rename it SEIKO HOUSE, and turn its upper floors into a base for promoting the legacy, appeal, and future possibilities of the Seiko brand.
In addition to better utilizing this historical site where one can sense the flow of Time, we will the top three floors with the latest equipment to take greater advantage of the facilities and space in this unique building.

HARMONY OF THE MOMENTS

At Seiko, we believe that the technology capable of measuring time to the nearest thousandth of a second is more than just a sophisticated tool — it is a tribute to the dedication, passion, and dreams of every athlete. Through our message, “A TRUE MOMENT,” we aim to convey the profound emotion of sports as expressed through time.

In celebration of the World Athletics Championships Tokyo 2025, we are proud to present a special exhibition, "HARMONY OF THE MOMENTS," at SEIKO HOUSE Hall.

This exhibition features three key installations:

① 12 MOMENTS
A journey through the history of the World Athletics Championships since 1983, captured in 12 iconic scenes inspired by the face of a clock.

②BEYOND MOMENTS
An immersive audiovisual experience that captures the emotional highs and electric atmosphere surrounding the birth of new world records, such as those about to be seen at this competition.

③ REALTIME RECORDS
A daily-updated showcase capturing the evolving drama of the Tokyo 2025 Championships in real time.

Visitors can also enjoy a variety of interesting experiences, including a photo-op space featuring an official competition timer displaying the event logo, as well as the exclusive screening of the official World Athletics Foundation video, which chronicles the sport's most historic moments.

We invite you to experience the “true moments” that Seiko has been capturing for decades—moments where peak experiences of human achievement are frozen in time.
