SpotlightPatriotic Fervour: Introducing Seiko’s Made Of Glory India Limited Edition

This year will mark India’s 75^th Republic Day—an important historical landmark, when the country adopted the Constitution of India on January 26, 1950. Along with this, it also became a sovereign state, and was declared a ‘republic’—a country where the power of electing representatives or heads of state and government reside with the people. The celebrations have already begun in full swing as the entire nation is gripped with patriotic fervor, and a natural extension of this sentiment has found its way into the horological realm as well.

Japanese watchmaker Seiko—known for producing some of the most precise timekeepers in the world have paid homage to India’s illustrious heritage by introducing the ‘Made of Glory’ India Limited Edition.
