The famed Japanese watch company Seiko traces its roots back to a watch and jewelry shop that first opened in 1881 in Tokyo’s Ginza district. Seiko can mean either exquisite or success in Japanese, two words that the brand continues to embody to this day. Offering a dynamic range of timepieces at a variety of price-points, Seiko offers something for everyone.

When this watch was first released it was exclusive to the Japanese market, and, as a limited-edition timepiece, only 500 pieces were produced. As such, it can be a challenge to obtain.

Fabulously unique in every regard, first off you may ponder the significance of the red 9. This is a reference to the so-called Japanese salary man who puts in a grueling daily work schedule from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.

The applied baton hour markers and red 9 are quite striking against the handsome pink dial. Most conveniently, there is a date window at 3 as well as a power-reserve indicator between 7 and 8.

Through the exhibition caseback you can see the movement in action, which, in this case, is the self-winding automatic Seiko Spring Drive 9R65 caliber.

The stainless steel case measures a comfortable 39 mm in diameter, 12.3 mm in height, and rests upon a stainless steel bracelet with a folding clasp. Additional features include a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and a 100 m / 10 atm water resistance.

Limited-edition timepieces make thrilling additions to one’s collection, and we are pleased to offer this Grand Seiko Heritage Spring Drive Power Reserve watch here for your consideration.

Standout feature(s): Limited edition model; convenient 72-hour power reserve; unique and handsomely styled red 9 and pink dial; power-reserve indicator.
