The watchmakers’ pride in their surroundings is represented from engineering watch movements, to creating dials reflecting the beauty of Japanese nature. A compact re-imagination of the SBGH341, this timepiece is crafted to fit a 30mm 62GS case design, whilst being only 10.5mm slim. The design builds on the heritage of the 62GS - the first Grand Seiko with automatic winding - launched in 1967 and popular ever since, with its distinct aesthetic and recognisable case shape.
Created in Stainless Steel, this model has a mirrored and multi-sided case with a wide dial opening, achieved with a bezel-free construction and unique Grand Seiko Zaratsu polishing. Through its exhibition caseback, the in-house 9S27 automatic calibre is accurate to +8 to -3 seconds per day, with a power reserve of 50 hours. Every Grand Seiko features signature high standards of precision, durability and legibility, handcrafted in Japan by Takumi artisans.
