Initially supervised by product designer\u00a0<strong>Naoto Fukasawa<\/strong>, the project gave rise to unique models.\u00a0<strong>Seiko<\/strong>\u00a0relaunched it in 2022 and, in its new guise, it is increasingly a platform that inspires the brand\u2019s designers to create unconventional and cutting-edge\u00a0<strong>watches<\/strong>that break away from traditional norms. The beauty of the\u00a0<strong>Seiko Power Design Project<\/strong>\u00a0lies in the fact that it grants creatives the freedom to explore new possibilities, free from constraints and preconceptions, without, however, betraying the spirit of the brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Naoto_Fukasawa_Watch_Insanity.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Naoto_Fukasawa_Watch_Insanity-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Naoto Fukasawa\" class=\"wp-image-29189\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Naoto_Fukasawa_Watch_Insanity-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Naoto_Fukasawa_Watch_Insanity-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Naoto_Fukasawa_Watch_Insanity-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Naoto_Fukasawa_Watch_Insanity-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Naoto_Fukasawa_Watch_Insanity-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Naoto_Fukasawa_Watch_Insanity.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Upon its revival in 2022, the project\u2019s theme was understandably\u00a0<strong>\u2018Rebirth\u2019<\/strong>, and it saw the reinterpretation of seven historic\u00a0<strong>Seiko models<\/strong>.

The exhibition at the\u00a0<strong>Seiko Boutique<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 which opened in\u00a0<strong>Japan<\/strong>\u00a0on 14 March and, following\u00a0<strong>Milan<\/strong>, is set to visit other European cities \u2013 invites visitors to discover unconventional perspectives and explore the creative universe that shaped each model. It is a story of intuition, experimentation and boundless passion, where every\u00a0<strong>watch<\/strong>\u00a0represents an authentic and radical exploration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>By Davide Passoni<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Seiko Power Design Project returns.
