Grand Seiko Elegance SBGW285G Watch for Men

Deep green, like late-summer leaves, the dial of the Grand Seiko Elegance SBGW285G sits in a 37.3 mm stainless steel case under a box-shaped sapphire crystal. Winding it by hand gives the calibre 9S64 roughly 72 hours of reserve, visible through the see-through case back, and a green crocodile leather strap completes the watch. Kamal Watch Co. is an authorised retailer of Grand Seiko watches.

The colour reflects Byōka, the end of summer in the traditional Japanese seasonal calendar, when the first morning dew appears around Shizukuishi and the leaves reach their deepest green before autumn. The dial carries a fine texture, while the slim movement behind it is assembled and adjusted by hand; a long mainspring and a balance made from Grand Seiko's own alloys keep its rate accurate and stable over the full three days.
