Grand Seiko Heritage

Heritage is where Grand Seiko keeps its classical designs, drawn, as the house puts it, from the earliest Grand Seiko watches including the 44GS and 62GS of 1967 and re-interpreted with current movements and manufacturing. The 44GS established the Grand Seiko Style, built on flat Zaratsu polished surfaces with the case side and bezel wall slanting inward, while the 62GS was the first automatic Grand Seiko and used a bezel free case that opens up the dial. Zaratsu polishing, multi faceted hands and indexes and dials textured after Japanese landscape and season run across the line, from the snow of the Hotaka mountains on the Snowflake to cherry blossom on the spring models. Grand Seiko sets the collection out in four series, 44GS, 62GS, Spring Drive and Refined Essentials, carrying 9F quartz, 9S mechanical and 9R Spring Drive movements.
