Ever-Brilliant Steel. A first for Grand Seiko.
The watch pays homage to the famous 44GS from 1967 whose design was the first ever expression of the uniquely Japanese Grand Seiko Style which, ever since, has been its visual signature. It features the high-beat watch powered by the revolutionary Caliber 9SA5, which offers a power reserve of 80 hours thanks to its enhanced energy efficiency.
It is offered as the case and bracelet material is Ever-Brilliant Steel and the movement is specially designed with tempered screws to mark the 55th anniversary of 44GS.
A dial inspired by the stars
The dial has a depth and a texture that attract the eye and take the imagination upwards towards the sky at night. The deeply etched pattern is that of the elliptical orbit of the stars as they move across the heavens and it captures the serene passage of celestial time with its flowing, unbroken lines.
Caliber 9RA2 delivers significant advances in performance, thanks to innovations that only a fully integrated “manufacture” could create. It offers a power reserve of 120 hours with a precision rate of +/- 10 seconds per month. Remarkably, the movement is thinner than its existing counterpart and makes possible a slimmer and sharper case that is true to the Grand Seiko Style established in 1967 with the celebrated 44GS.
