Seiko at a Glance

-The Seiko Group consists of two giant, publicly held, separate companies, each with many subsidiaries and affiliates. They make 12 million finished watches and 336 million movements per year.
-Seiko Epson. Net sales of $12.6 billion, 78,000 employees. Biggest product is Epson printers. Manufactures finished watches and watch components, including movements. -----Owns Orient Watch Co. Watches make up about 5 percent of total sales (not including Orient Watch sales).
-Seiko Holdings. Expected consolidated net sales of $3.1 billion for current fiscal year. Has several subsidiaries, two of them in the watch business:
-Seiko Instruments, Inc. (SII). Acquired last year. Net sales of $2.2 billion for latest fiscal year, 11,000 employees. Widely diversified. Makes finished watches, watch -components and movements. Watches make up 15 percent of its total sales.
-Seiko Watch Corp. Net sales, about $1 billion for latest fiscal year. Markets watches manufactured by Seiko Epson and SII. Does not itself make watches.
In addition, a Seiko affiliate, Time Module, markets the more than 300 million watch movements that Seiko Epson and SII make each year for com- panies outside the Seiko Group.





Not only that, Seiko makes nearly all the components used in these many watch types: from balance springs to quartz crystals, from integrated circuits to the gongs used in its ultra-high-end sonnerie watches. (Jewel bearings and pallet jewels are among the very few watch parts Seiko buys from outside suppliers.) The group’s watch-production operations range from vast, robotized assembly lines churning out truckloads of quartz watches to tiny ateliers where highly skilled watchmakers assemble by hand high-complication watches priced at more than $100,000.
The company has another world championship title, one it doesn’t often brag about. Seiko is, hands down, the world’s most complicated watch company — a sprawling thicket of companies, really, rather than a single entity, which defies un- derstanding even by many watch-industry veterans. Seiko’s bil- lion-dollar-plus watch business is part of a diversified manufac- turing and sales colossus with about 90,000 employees world- wide and total sales of roughly $16 billion.

Not only that, Seiko makes nearly all the components used in these many watch types: from balance springs to quartz crystals, from integrated circuits to the gongs used in its ultra-high-end sonnerie watches.
