Grand Seiko SLGH033 Green Birch Hi Beat Ever Brilliant Steel

The essence of Grand Seiko is infused with Japanese beauty. Born in the pursuit of the ideal wristwatch, the Evolution 9 Style evinces a new design grammar that evolved from the Grand Seiko Style of 1967. Through the Evolution 9 Style, Grand Seiko forges a new path while honouring its origins. A dial that powerfully and delicately expresses the life force of white birch forests The dial captures the essence of magnificent white birch forests, wrapped in the crisp air of the highlands. Iwate Prefecture, home to the Grand Seiko Studio Shizukuishi, boasts Japan’s largest white birch forest. White birch is a fast-growing, sun-loving species with remarkable vitality. Their straight, white trunks reaching toward the sun evoke both beauty and strength. Inspired by the vast expanse of these trees stretching endlessly across the landscape, Grand Seiko developed the “White Birch Pattern,” a design that conveys the depth and richness of the forest. Building on this pattern, the dial evokes the mystical sight of layers of fresh green tones filtering through tall, slender white trunks, their vitality expressed through nuanced green coloring that brings the forest’s living breath to the surface.
