Product Description

The Pulsar Story

Pulsar by Seiko Holdings Corporation.

A spectacular breakthrough

Pulsar was born in an age of optimism. In the 1970's, everything seemed achievable through the rapidly growing technological expertise at the world's fingertips. Space flight had been converted from dream to reality, computer science was developing at break neck speed and electronics seemed to deliver new advances every day. Pulsar symbolized the age. It was new and it was bold, it was surprising and it was different. Pulsar, the world's first electronic digital watch, created a sensation when it was unveiled in New York in 1972 and it changed the world's perception of time.

A tradition of difference

When the brand was taken into the Seiko Corporation in 1980, it brought further surprises to the world; the first calculator watch in 1980 and the first all-quartz watch line in 1981 were among its industry-leading achievements. And throughout the '80's and 90's Pulsar continued to bring to market new products that were born to be different. The Avant-garde collection in 1980's set a new style in women's watches and Spoon in 1990's were unique designs which further cemented Pulsar's image as an ingenious and surprising watchmaker.

Towards a modernist future

Today, Pulsar remains loyal to its heritage. It was born to be different and it will remain so. Each Pulsar watch has the hint of the futurism and modernity that have always been its hallmark. Pulsar is a brand for the individual who appreciates real value and seeks quality with individuality and flair.

4.0 out of 5 stars Strong Watch...Weak Alarm, June 12, 2007

This watch has a great presence and performance...from the flight deck to the board room. The alarm however is quite faint,a distant chime, and with the smallest amount of ambient noise can easlily be drowned out. I use watch alarms as prompts for meetings, to return phone calls within the promised time frame and as a wake-up for early morning workouts...and the alarm on this watch is for the most part useless. Although I love everything else in regards to the watch if you are looking for a functional alarm...look elsewhere. I have had watches with the same waterproof performance as this watch with far more alarming alarms.

When first I wanted to decide which watch to get, I got confused btween the Blue one and the Black one which I got. Then I went for the Black, and it is exeptionally good looking for me and goes very will with my Bulky wrist. I love it's color the most and the precsion of it. Mind you the chorno alarm is some how faint but works quite well. The only critism I have for it the the black band like color on the steel chain, this some how is only plated on and get scratched very easily, because I use this watch every day, I think it will fade away in a year or so. But the watch is very lovely, you should get one your self and get that very nice replays from friends and family.

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice - but with questions, March 8, 2007

Very beautiful watch - upon first impressions my husband loved the watch, weight, features, etc. However, and we're still currently looking into this, the second hand seems to get caught up in the same place as it goes around - leading us to believe it may be defective, as it has actually stopped there as well. We are looking into whether this is normal for this watch or a feature we're not aware of, but instincts say the second hand should be more fluid if it were really a high quality watch.
