Haven’t read the article yet, but I’m assuming it says everybody uses AI these days. Except Seiko, they just use Google’s password generator to come up with nonsensical strings of letters and numbers.
Cool article. The brand name I can't warm up to is Norqain. I know I'm not the first to say this but it sounds like something you'd take before bed if you had a cold and we're hoping for a decent night's sleep. Nice looking watches though.

Wow, a watch article where it didn't mention the 'R' brand.
Very interesting how some of the names were developed!
