“Beauty is in the details”

Beauty is in the details.
Even with a marvelous design, true beauty cannot be achieved if the details are neglected.
Refinement comes through many layers of beautiful details.
Let’s explore the essence of Grand Seiko’s beauty.

This watch could be said to convey the very essence of Japanese aesthetics.

SBGH353

 

This model is a modern re-interpretation of the 62GS, which features a bezel-free construction. It expresses the marvelous changing seasons with great attention to detail.

The colour of the dial is a deep blue that is inspired by the clear night skies that Japan enjoys during shubun, the 16th of the 24 sekki, or seasons.

The pattern of the dial evokes floating clouds in the night sky, and the brilliant gold-toned Grand Seiko lettering and seconds hand, set against the deep blue dial, symbolize the moon.

This watch could be said to convey the very essence of Japanese aesthetics.
