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.

This review is from: Pulsar Men's PXN133 Sport Black Polyurethane Strap Watch (Watch)
I had this same watch for about 30 years I think. It quit working in the fall and I found this one almost identical except for the orange face and minor differences in the case. I even put on my stainless band in place of the rubber strap. It started losing time today and I took it to my jeweler. He checked the battery, said a quartz movement shouldn't lose time - the movement was defective. I'm rather disappointed - and since it was Amazon - I've had trouble lately with several items I've bought - I have to go to the trouble of sending it back to Pulsar and not a jewelry store. I'll have to rethink Amazon.

This is a great looking watch. The orange face and luminous hands are very easy to see and the day/date feature is enhanced by the magnifying crystal. This is my second Pulsar watch and I am very pleased with their quality. You can't go wrong with this watch.

I've had this watch (PXN133) for a couple of months now. It has been accurate to the second in this time. My old Pulsar is a solar model I bought in 1998 and it still works beautifully! The PXN133 is battery operated with, I believe, an estimated three year battery life.
Yes the band is a little long but is not bothersome in the least to me. My wife loves the orange color and I do as well. The hands and orange dial give good contrast and is easily readable at a glance.
I do agree that this watch is not a pure diver in that it is more a diver style watch. This makes no difference to me as I don't dive but wanted a rugged user watch that I can take swimming. The bezel is hard to turn, and again, this is of no import because I won't use it anyway. It does have a screw down crown.
So for the price for a rugged watch that can take some beating this watch is highly recommended.
