A classic Grand Seiko design with a dial that captures Shūbun, a treasured moment in the Japanese seasonal calendar.
This is a modern re-interpretation of the celebrated 62GS from 1967, whose characteristic sharp edges and perfect, distortion-free surfaces can only be created with Zaratsu polishing.
The watch’s wide dial opening was achieved thanks to a bezel-free construction, lending the 62GS a distinctive appearance on the wrist.
The dial is inspired by the clear night skies that Japan enjoys during Shūbun, the sixteenth of the twenty-four sekki or seasons, which falls around the time of the autumn equinox.
The gold-toned Grand Seiko lettering and seconds hand stand out in sharp relief against the deep blue dial, echoing the way the moon and stars illuminate the night sky.
The case and bracelet are made of highly anticorrosive Ever-Brilliant Steel, a stainless-steel alloy that boasts a PREN (Pitting Resistance Equivalent Number) value 1.7 times higher than that of the grade of steel used in most high-end watches.
Inside is the Hi-Beat Caliber 9S85, hand assembled by the skilled craftsmen and women of the Grand Seiko Studio Shizukuishi, that achieves a power reserve of about 55 hours when fully wound.
