Beautiful timepieces. I would love to visit Tokyo just to go to the Seiko headquarters there. It would be an honor to visit such an iconic place. Thank you so much for sharing, what I believe to be, the most beautiful creations coming from Seiko. I bow to you.
The Grand Seiko Snowflake Spring Drive is one of the most beautiful watches I own. Clean, perfection, accurate. So light it disappears on the wrist, I love wearing it. ❤ 🇬🇧
I'm the proud owner of an SBGE255 spring drive timepiece. I cherish looking at the sweeping second hand, gliding along the perfect dial that only Grand Seiko can produce.
Great video! I don’t understand why more brands don’t do this. It gives so much more meaning and value to a watch when the design principles and levels of craftsmanship behind it are explained.
The video, color, light and exceptional clear voice, creative foley and sound is really impressive and precise just like Grand Seiko watches. With love, from israel.🎉
Thank you for this very nice produced video and the inteoduction of your newest timepieces. I am a watch enthusiast and I sah your new SLGT005 Tourbillon. Just wow, what a amazing and esthetic watch. In my opion this is perfection in every detail. Thanks for showing your work and artpiece. Kind regards from germany
I have owned many many watches. In my 50’s today and have narrowed down my inventory to two watches. I one a single Rolex and a single Evolution 9. I reach for the Seiko 8 out of 10 days.
Only thing GS needs to start doing more is bring the watch size down and thickness, and specifically the crystal size... The SBGH205 case is perfect example of case and crystal size ratio...
Grand Seiko is cool, but it is missing so much: 1. Complications ( no annual calendar, perpetual, weekly calendars) - given their aesthetics these types of complications would fit most of the collection 2. Full precious metal watches with precious metal bracelets 3. Decently made bracelets and clasps that are at least on par or better than Omega
Just to let you know Grand Seiko President Mr Akio Naito acknowledged customer demand for this design element which is being worked on. We'll let you know when watches incorporating this are released - but as you know, creating new designs can take a little time. To hear about our latest releases as they happen, please do sign up to the Grand Seiko UK newsletter at www.grandseikoboutique.co.uk/newsletter-signup/ and our Social Media channels: @grandseikouk on Instagram and Grand Seiko UK on Facebook. Thanks, Grand Seiko UK.
@@GrandSeikoUK Lol. Dude, standard $200 Seikos have micro-adjust capabilities. We’re not asking g for Rolex/Tudor level “on the fly adjustments” (which are amazing). But just to ability to resize your bracelet with a toothpick. Maybe you’ll figure it out in 5 years
Grand Seiko should consider offering strap options in shorter lengths and design a mechanism where the strap tail tucks under rather than protruding outside. Furthermore, they should implement a micro-adjustment feature for their steel bracelets and ensure a tapered design from the lug width to the clasp down to 16mm.

@@GrandSeikoUK I'm delighted to see that my suggestion is being taken into consideration. I have been a fan of Seiko and Grand Seiko for a long time, owning several timepieces such as the SKX007, SBDX001, SBDX017, SLA019, SBGM235, SBGW231, SBGA465, and SBGA427. However, I have sold all of them except for the SLGH005 and SLGA021, which I believe represent the pinnacle of Grand Seiko's movement technology. I adore both of my Grand Seiko watches, especially the 40mm size which fits perfectly on my wrist. Currently, I keep them on the steel bracelet, but I also dream of putting them on an alligator strap. Unfortunately, my wrist is not very big, and the strap options for Grand Seiko watches have a very long tail which looks unsightly. I hope that in the future Grand Seiko will improve their strap options by making a shorter tail or else makes it underneath the buckle or clasp, enhancing the wearer's appearance with a neater and more elegant look.Thank you once again for acknowledging my feedback, and I look forward to supporting Grand Seiko in their future models.
Please fix the idiotic 72 GMT bezel clicks in Grand Seiko watches. 72 settings mean 20 minute increments while there are no 20 or 40 minute time zones, but there are several 30 and 15 minute time zones, and with 48 or 96 clicks it would be possible to set the bezel to timezones like India (30 min) and also Nepal (15 minute difference from India, with 96 clicks).
my hope for Grand Seiko: ""In the timeless dance of innovation and elegance, Grand Seiko unveils a masterpiece of future technology-a watch with perpetual movements, where every tick is a promise of eternity, never needing a touch to wind, forever capturing the heartbeat of time."

@@ozmondosI personally have no issue with the clasps... but I can see why Grand Seiko have a 'seasons' collection... ... each watch sized on expected wrist temperature... 😂😂😂 Just gives me more reason to buy more Grand Seiko watches 😊
This. I'll never understand why this company stubbornly refuses to do 40mm divers. At one point, I thought the japanese even had made an agreement with the swiss never to do so...
Not complaining abt clasps n bracelets cos I think its a little overly dramatized. Own n love the SD Midnight Blue, u guys doing great on all departments except the sports models, it's way too classy 😂, how about some out of the box rugged designs 😅
I have a Seiko Sport Mechanical watch bought almost 2 months ago. The only problem is that it runs 2 minutes faster, and most of the mechanical watches have these issues.
Seiko has turned into a fancy watch brand over time. Overly expensive watches for accuracy ? Meanwhile Citizen and Casio bringing out gems for the common people. A kinetic, mecha quartz Seiko with these features is still the best option. Don't turn into a fashion brand please. Remain true to passion.
Hi Dennis, thank you for your comment! We have lots of Grand Seiko timepieces with a diametre less than 37mm. Please see if any pieces appeal to you at www.grandseikoboutique.co.uk/shop/filters/case-diameter/27-8mm_37-0mm/. If you would like to discuss this further, our boutique team would be more than happy to help. Please contact us on +44(0)20 3105 6212 or email us at boutique@grand-seiko.co.uk. Thanks Grand Seiko UK.
Fix your 9AS5 movement before talking about anything. My SLGH017 was running 20 seconds a day and it was serviced by grand Seiko last Nov 2023. Now it’s still running at 8-10seconds fast a day. Not going to buy another GS until they fix it
As I mentioned in another comment, my GS Tentagraph highbeat runs fast, outside of specification. But the Spring Drive movements are bang on accurate... I'd buy another Spring Drive, but also will not buy another highbeat.
Thanks so much for your message, sorry to hear that you have had a problem with your watch. The quality of our timepieces is something we take seriously. Please can you tell us a little bit more about your issue? Please contact our team via DM or on +44(0)20 3105 6212 or email to boutique@seiko.co.uk, thanks Grand Seiko UK
Despite the advantages of the SBGC253watch, I'm not satisfied with it and have sold it... 1. Pushers wobble in the housing (too much play) 2. The claps are not solid enough 3. Spring Drive indicator is only "printed" and not 3D-engraved 4. Price of 13.400€ too expensive compared to other cheaper models that using the same spring drive caliber. Don’t get me wrong, I'm a fan of Japanese craftsmanship and Grand Seiko, but the above-mentioned issues are not in line with self-imposed quality standards.
In UK 🇬🇧 I own a GS SLGC001 "Tentagraph" with 9SC5 movement. This also runs faster outside of specification. Alongside my Rolex 126711 with 3285 movement, Omega Speedmaster 9904 movement, and even my Hanhart 417ES with a Sellita SW 510 M movement... the Tentagraph is the worst timepiece I have for accuracy. However... my GS Snowflake Spring Drive is the most accurate timepiece in my collection... alongside my MRG G-Shocks So... Japanese win, but highbeat Tentagraph not so much...
Grand Seiko é o sinônimo de qualidade e elegância , sempre a Frente de grandes marcas da alta relojoaria mundial , isso coloca como uma marca mais confiável do mundo ❤❤❤
in my opinion the everyday Seikos for the average Joe is far more important than the marvelous pieces from Grand Seiko. The only thing for Europeans, the watches should get wider around 42mm-44mm mesured without crown!

Magnificent pieces....the best around the world. Not only is design....it's the caliber, the materials...all.
I love you, Grand Seiko. Shunbun is my first luxury watch. Your nature inspired dial and spring drive innovation really call out to me.

It looks old and cheap

It looks like it belongs on a 2000 Era Tag Heuer, not a Rolex or AP, it's one of reason I didn't purchase
