Grand Seiko Evolution 9 'Moonlit Birch Bark' Steel Hi-Beat 38.6mm Watch SLGW007

This timepiece embodies technical watchmaking precision with Japanese beauty – powered by the first 10 beat manual-winding movement created by the brand in fifty years. Its dial features the ‘birch bark’ dial pattern inspired by the white birch forests illuminated in moonlight, near Shizukuishi studio where all Grand Seiko mechanical watches are crafted. The Moonlit Birch Bark, in the Evolution 9 style, features box sapphire crystal glass with an anti-reflective coating; its case, crown and clasp made from stainless steel. Evolution 9 is the latest 2020s stage in Grand Seiko’s “Grammar of Design” framework, first established with the 44GS – a blueprint to maximise sparkle, legibility and wearability for Grand Seiko watches since 1967.
