Seiko Corporation of America (SCA) keeps US time for Japan's Seiko Holdings Corporation, a firm best known for its watches, clocks, and athletic timing devices. SCA markets watches and clocks under popular brands the likes of Pulsar and Seiko. Watches in Seiko's Kinetic series are powered by wrist movement rather than batteries; if the watch is set aside, a chip stores the time for several years.

SCA also offers personalized touches such as custom engraving and diamond settings.
