Re-creations of the first Grand Seiko

The first Grand Seiko watch, faithfully re-created with an eye to the future
2020 is a special year for Grand Seiko as it is the 60th anniversary of its creation. The date was December 18, 1960. For some time, a determined team in Seiko’s Suwa facility in central Japan had been working on the creation of a watch that would be as precise, durable, comfortable and beautiful as humanly possible. On that day, the result of all their efforts was released. It was a watch with a 14k gold filled case and a slim movement whose precision met the highest international standard of the time. Such was the level of their achievement that it was decided to call the watch Grand Seiko. Now, in this special year, a new re-creation of the first Grand Seiko watch from 1960 takes its permanent place in the collection.

The 18k gold watch preserves tradition with sophistication.
18k yellow gold is used for this case, just as it was on the very first Grand Seiko. Its soft feel and sharply sculpted form show its heritage and the embossed Grand Seiko name is presented in a three-dimensional form that also reflects the original. The indexes are in 18k yellow gold and, just like on the platinum version, the SD (Special Dial) mark is located at the 6 o’clock position.
A sapphire case back reveals the beauty of the movement.
The beauty of Caliber 9S64 and its escapement shines through the sapphire case back. The movement has a power reserve of 72 hours and a precision rate of +5 to -3 seconds per day and is finished to perfection.
The birth of Grand Seiko, a high accuracy watch with a quiet, Japanese refinement
The first Grand Seiko born on December 18, 1960.
It was the determination to excel that brought about the birth of Grand Seiko in 1960. During its development and ever since, the idea that drove the designers and engineers was that Grand Seiko should be the ‘ideal’ watch with standards of precision, durability and beauty that would lead the world.
