The precision and superior quartz technology of the Seiko Grand Quartz 4843-8100 are well known. As a member of Seiko's Grand Quartz line, it was introduced in the late 1970s and was intended to provide exceptional accuracy, with monthly variations of only a few seconds.
This series, which reflected cutting-edge technology and exquisite craftsmanship, was Seiko's premium quartz line. Because quartz watches are more accurate and less expensive than mechanical watches, they became popular during the Quartz Crisis, which gave rise to the Grand Quartz 4843-8100. The watch has a traditional style that combines sophistication with cutting-edge technology.
Because of its remarkable craftsmanship and historical significance, it continues to be a sought-after collector's item and helped to establish Seiko's reputation in the quartz watch market. This is high end quartz movement that also has that special Seiko gimmick of the "jumping seconds hand". This means that it will jump ahead 10 seconds when you pull the crown to adjust the time. It makes time setting so much easier.
