Business Description
To commemorate the 160th anniversary of Kintaro Hattori’s birth, the elite team of watchmakers at the Micro Artist Studio have introduced a spring drive with a softly rounded Zaratsu polished case made of Platinum 950. To ensure perfect legibility, the sapphire crystal glass is dual-curved with each surface being shaped.The intricate pattern on the dial here is made possible by processing techniques that create a delicate dial surface with varying depths. The interplay of light and shadow on the dial that is an essential part of the signature of every Grand Seiko is accentuated by the application of seconds markers that enhance the legibility of the time. As has been the tradition since the 1960’s, a star mark located at six o’clock denotes that the indexes are of solid gold. The indexes and the hour and minute hands are in 14K white gold and are specially cut to create a sharpness that amplifies the enduring beauty of the gold.
