Seiko and Fragment Design Unveil Limited Edition Metronome Quartz Timepieces

Seiko, in an innovative collaboration between Fragment Design and retailer VA, has unveiled a two-piece collection of limited edition Metronome quartz timepieces. They owe their unique design to Hiroshi Fujiwara, who has notably also designed models for TAG Heuer. Fujiwara’s signature is a lighting bolt, which graces the dial of all his creations, including the Seiko Metronome Fragment.

The watches feature a 36.5 mm diameter stainless steel case, which is 10 mm thick and 39.6 mm lug-to-lug. Their standout feature, however, is the metronome function, which has a tempo range of 3-304 beats per minute, fixed at 41 steps. This element is indicated through the minute hand’s movement. Additionally, a reference tone function provides a 6 type tone range for easy instrument tuning.
