Grand Seiko Sakura-Wakaba SBGH343

This elegant 38mm wristwatch is a modern interpretation of the celebrated 62GS, Grand Seiko’s first mechanical model to feature automatic winding. A masterpiece of design, it embodies the “evolution of practicality” that has been central to Grand Seiko since its inception. The light-green dial is inspired by the new leaves that bud on cherry trees around the end of spring. The dial’s color is meant to express the vibrancy of the fresh new leaves as sunlight penetrates their translucence in the spaces between the peach-colored cherry blossom petals. The movement powering this watch is the Hi-Beat Caliber 9S85, which 10 beats per second to provide more stable precision by reducing variations in accuracy. With a diameter of 38 mm, the watch makes a classic impression on the wrist, and the case and bracelet have been crafted from high-intensity titanium, which is even more resistant to abrasions than regular titanium and designed to be a delight to wear.
