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. 

In celebration of the 140th anniversary of Kintaro Hattori founding his watch and jewelry shop, Grand Seiko created an exquisite quartz GMT timepiece in a limited-edition run of only 2,021 watches produced.

By honoring Hattori and the brand's long legacy, this bold and refined Grand Seiko Sport piece is versatile as a dress or sport watch for any occasion.

You will surely notice the scratch-resistant ceramic bezel with its GMT 24-hour scale—a convenient feature for the frequent traveler. The two-tone ring upon the dial and third luminous arm in yellow makes telling the time in two locations quick and easy.

Luminous hands and applied hour markers are great for low light, and there is a handy date window at 4 along with a minute track in white. The black-colored dial offers a dynamic radiating pattern that enlivens this landscape in every direction.

The closed caseback prominently features a luxurious 18K gold Grand Seiko lion medallion. The stainless steel case measures a comfortable 40 mm in diameter, 13.7 mm in height, and rests upon a stainless steel bracelet with a folding clasp. 

Additional features include a screw-down winding crown, scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, and water resistance to 200 m / 20 atm. 

The Grand Seiko 9F86 quartz GMT caliber is constructed of quality materials that results in a high precision of -10 to +10 seconds per year.

As a limited-edition timepiece of expert quality and handsome stylings, this Grand Seiko Sport GMT 140th Anniversary watch will make an essential addition to your collection.

Standout feature(s): Exciting limited edition of only 2,021 pieces produced; convenient second GMT time zone; luxurious 18K gold Grand Seiko lion medallion upon caseback.
