HAVING ENJOYED SIX years of independence from former parent company Seiko, Grand Seiko has been hitting its stride in continuing to build upon its reputation as a watchmaker known for nature-inspired aesthetics, obsessive attention to detail and a relentless pursuit of timekeeping precision. Its 2023 novelties run the gamut of modern design and utility, but there are three models in particular that perfectly embody the multifaceted appeal and diverse talents of this Japanese horologer.
The first is the Masterpiece Collection Spring Drive Limited Edition Majestic White Birch SBGZ009, which is limited to 50 pieces. The Masterpiece watches represent the pinnacle of what Grand Seiko is capable of: blending technical virtuosity and artistic expression through intricate hand-decorated textures and exceptional complications. These rare watches are made by a small team in the Micro Artist Studio in the brand’s Shinshu Watch Studio in Nagano prefecture. Its location in Shiojiri means it is blessed with serene views of the white birch forests at the foot of Yatsugatake Mountains, from which the SBGZ009 takes inspiration.
