Seiko is thrilled to announce the return of the Power Design Project to Japan House London this May, showcasing the brand’s commitment to innovative watchmaking through its in-house experts who creatively explore timepieces beyond conventional design boundaries.
Following the success of the 2024 exhibition, Incredibly Specialised Watches Exhibition 2 marks the second international installment of this bold initiative. It features visionary concepts created for highly specific functions, offering a fascinating look at how Seiko redefines what a watch can be.
For over 144 years, Seiko has introduced iconic watches designed for various purposes, from divers’ watches to railroad timekeepers. In this exhibition, Seiko’s in-house watchmakers have completely reimagined the very essence of a timepiece, creating designs that challenge the conventional.
The second edition of the exhibition showcases six imaginative timepieces, each telling a unique story. Among them are watches designed for ninjas, and a timepiece specifically made for boiling eggs—reflecting Seiko’s continued commitment to pushing the boundaries of innovation and horology.
