“Grand Seiko” is a luxury watch brand that offers timepieces made by master craftsmen at two exclusive watchmaking studios in Japan, using exclusive movements and the highest grade materials. Each Grand Seiko watch is instantly recognizable because of its simplicity of form and its understated elegance.
Since the beginning, Grand Seiko’s watchmakers aspired to create a watch with a high degree of accuracy. In order to achieve this, they created their own accuracy standard. Grand Seiko has always been a true manufacturer, committed to designing, making and assembling each component of every watch at their own facilities and with their own watchmakers. What lies at the heart of every Grand Seiko is expert craftsmanship. High-precision parts are adjusted by hand to tolerances of one-hundredth of a millimetre, to yield masterpieces that are worthy of the most discerning eyes. Grand Seiko watches are powered by the exclusive Spring Drive, Automatic Hi-Beat 36000 and the Mechanical movements.
The silhouette of a Grand Seiko watch is crafted from sharp, flat surfaces and straight lines. The surfaces are highly polished by hand by highly skilled craftsmen and women to a perfect, distortion-free mirror finish. The rectangular indexes are diamond cut so that every surface catches the light, as are the broad hour, minute and seconds hands. From the painstaking attention paid to all these elements comes the high legibility and sparkle of quality that have always been the hallmark of Grand Seiko.
