Grand Seiko Continues Celebrating With Two New Models

Grand Seiko Continues Celebrating With Two New Models

Today, Grand Seiko launched an additional two models, further expanding its already impressive collection. As part of the Heritage Collection, they take part in the 55th anniversary of the 44GS, further continuing the celebrations around this legendary watch. Both creations focus on the three fundamental pillars for the brand; precision, durability, and beauty.

For these watches, Grand Seiko opted for a diameter of 40mm. This gives them a sportive look with a touch of elegance. With a water-resistance of 10 bar are they true all-around watches and perfect for day-to-day life. For the dials, Grand Seiko took its inspiration from the sky, featuring the elliptical pattern of the orbit of stars, deeply etched into the surface. It creates an understated appeal that is mesmerizing. The same can be said of the Ever-Brilliant Steel, which is very corrosion-resistant, outperforming that of 316L steel, which is commonly used in watches. It can also be polished to perfection, showing a brilliant white hue that suits these watches perfectly.

While reference SLGH009 and  SLGA013 may look similar, there is a profound difference between them. SLGH009 features Grand Seiko‘s caliber 9SA5. This automatic movement runs at 36,000 VpH and has a generous power reserve of 80-hours. The finishing of the movement is breathtaking and a true joy to behold. SLGA013 highlights another area of expertise of Grand Seiko, as it is powered by a Spring Drive movement. For Caliber 9RA2, the brand switched the power reserve indicator to the back of the movement while maintaining the other characteristics. It comes with a five-day power reserve, and thanks to the Spring Drive technology, it is accurate to around 10 seconds per month. Both watches will be available as limited editions of 550 at the Grand Seiko Boutiques and selected Grand Seiko retail stores worldwide in February 2022.
