Grand Seiko Evolution 9 38,6mm

SLGW003G

This dress watch is equipped with the Grand Seiko Calibre 9SA4, the brand’s first hand-wound 36000 vph mechanical movement in approximately 50 years. Its design represents the continuation of the Grand Seiko Style dating back to the iconic 44GS of 1967. This time, the Evolution 9 Style has been further refined to create a watch that instantly conveys the charm, elegance, grace and subtlety that you would expect from a hand-wound dress watch.

The dial is inspired by the slender white birch trees that abound in the northern parts of Japan and grow in abundance near the Grand Seiko Studio Shizukuishi. The exquisite design reflects the beauty of the birch bark with its intricate multi-dimensional texture.

The case and clasp are made from Grand Seiko’s Brilliant Hard Titanium. Thanks to this alloy, which is shinier than traditional titanium, Zaratsu-polished surfaces appear even more radiant. Brilliant Hard Titanium makes the watch not only lightweight, but also highly resistant to corrosion and scratches, with twice the robustness of standard stainless steel.

The movement achieves greater winding efficiency thanks to a rearrangement of the gear train and a redesign of the parts, so that the Calibre 9SA4 achieves a power reserve of 80 hours with 15 per cent fewer turns of the crown than it takes to achieve the same power for the Calibre 9SA5 when wound by hand. Thanks to its slender movement, the latest birch-inspired mechanical watch measures 38.6 mm in diameter and achieves a thickness of 9.95 mm.
