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.

Pulsar make 3 watches that are essentially the same model but with different finishes: The PXN129 (Silver), PXN130 (Gold), and the PXN131 (Two Tone). These watches are great. They aren't fantastic show pieces - like an Omega or a Rolex - but they do convey a sense of elegance and function at a very reasonable price. Quartz movement means accuracy. Day/Date display keeps you informed. 100 meter water resist means no worries if it gets wet. Expansion band means fast-on / fast-off - and no fumbling with a buckle or a clasp. And lastly, the Lumibrite dial - which is very bright and long-lasting. I only wish these watches had an alarm feature - and then they would be perfect. Pulsar - are you listening?
