Diashock was Seiko's own shock protection system, its answer to Incabloc. Crowns are where Japanese watchmaking stopped imitating Switzerland and started competing with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003chr size=\"2\" width=\"100%\" align=\"center\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eOffered by ReWrist.
