Grand Seiko - New Heritage Models!
Grand Seiko has introduced two new Heritage Collection 'Snowflake' Mastershop models:
SBGX355
A highly accurate quartz watch featuring a dial reminiscent of windswept snow.
In Japan, we see many changes in the expressions of nature as the seasons pass, and Grand Seiko seeks to capture the essence of these changes through evocative dials it makes in-house. The snow-white dial of SBGX355 is meant to suggest the serendipitous beauty of nature in the area near the Shinshu Watch Studio where it is made.
Through master craftsmanship, it presents a detailed pattern not unlike the one traced across the snow by the wind, one that might be seen on the Hotaka peaks in winter. The second hand in vivid blued steel creates a beautiful contrast as it rounds the pure white dial. The 37mm case and the bracelet are crafted from high-intensity titanium, which is even more resistant to abrasions than regular titanium and wears ethereally light on the wrist.
STGF385
A refined quartz watch that elegantly displays the brilliance of snow on a dial framed by 44 diamonds.
The pristine dial beautifully expresses the magnificent color of a snowy landscape in the Hotaka mountains, which can be seen from the Shinshu Watch Studio where this model is produced.
This “snowflake” dial features a detailed pattern that exudes the aesthetic sense of Grand Seiko, portraying an unspoiled, windswept snowfield. The shimmering color of the blued steel seconds hand and the dazzling set of 44 diamonds on the bezel combine to produce a wide variety of visual expressions depending on the light. Easy to match with any style of dress, this model’s refined elegance is readily apparent.
