Seiko Dress Watch 2220

The Caliber 2559, used in men’s dress watches and high-end women’s watches, is now being replaced by Caliber 2220, while maintaining its slim profile and stable accuracy.
This new caliber features a simple hand-wound two-hand mechanism, an 8-beat high-frequency movement, and a fine adjustment system—a high-level mechanical design. It will continue to be used primarily in dress watches and fashion watches, expanding the variety of models suited for stylish young people.
From pair watches for young couples, to rectangular dress watches for dandy gentlemen, and a rich variety of high-sense town watches for women—please recommend these widely to your fashion-conscious young customers.
