Grand Seiko Evolution 9 SLGA007 140th Anniversary Lake Suwa Edition
A masterful expression of watchmaking that embodies Grand Seiko’s dedication to precision, luxury, and artistry, the Evolution 9 “Lake Suwa” SLGA007G celebrates Seiko’s 140th anniversary and philosophy of "The Nature of Time," with a dial that is inspired by the serene waters of Lake Suwa, nearby where Grand Seiko watches are crafted. A distinctive shade of blue dial that mirrors the tranquil and reflective surface of the lake, Grand Seiko achieved a depth of color and texture that is both soothing, sophisticated and intensely luxurious – characteristics that its well-finished indices and hands all share too. Powered by the innovative Spring Drive cal. 9RA2 which combines the best attributes of mechanical and electronic watchmaking, the SLGA007G offers an impressive 120-hour power reserve and an enhanced precision of +/- 0.5 seconds per day; representing the pinnacle of Seiko’s technological advancement. Offered as part of Grand Seiko’s Heritage Collection, the SLGA007G’s case features a slim profile with Grand Seiko’s signature Zaratsu polishing throughout its bevels which contrast its brushed surfaces which results in a beautifully executed aesthetic that punches far beyond its weight class.
THE DIAL Inspired by the rippling waters of lake Suwa, the SLGA007 boasts a stunning blue dial that serves as a mesmerizing example of Grand Seiko's craftsmanship.
THE CONSTRUCTION Famed for their Zaratsu black polishing, Grand Seiko's cases are some of the most revered in watchmaking, and certainly for their price bracket. With a beautifully polished bezel and thick polished bevels, the SLGA007's stainless steel construction showcases exactly why Grand Seiko's cases and bracelets are held in such high regard.
THE MOVEMENT Powered by the automatic Spring Drive cal. 9RA2 movement, which is proudly on display behind an exhibition caseback to showcase its finishing, the SLGA007 features an impressive 5-day power reserve.
