and they had a sample there, but I don't think they are grown there. Apparently they grow to about the size of a house brick, then small slivers are shaved or cut off.

On the other hand, many of the 8 million a month quartz watches are produced by other Seiko plants around Asia.
I guess I could ask and find out.
