THE SEIKO MUSEUM GINZA セイコーミュージアム 銀座

Step back in time to the early days of Japan's clock industry

For lovers of unusual exhibits, the Seiko Museum Ginza is an homage to all things related to time and clocks. The museum focuses on the history of the clock industry in Japan. Highlights include a wide range of historical time pieces, from sundials to pendulum clocks to all kinds of wristwatches. Of particular interest are the traditional Japanese clocks which operate on a "temporal system," adjusted to reflect the division between daylight and nighttime hours during each day in a given season.
