The Grand Seiko SLGW003, part of the Evolution 9 Collection, epitomizes the artistry of manual winding and precision watchmaking. Its Caliber 9SA4 movement, the brand's first manual-winding 36,000 vph mechanical movement in around half a century, ensures exceptional accuracy and an impressive 80-hour power reserve with fewer crown rotations. Crafted from Brilliant Hard Titanium, the case and clasp boast remarkable radiance and durability while maintaining a slim profile of 38.6mm in diameter and 10.0mm thickness. The design, inspired by the delicate beauty of white birch trees, features refined elements like elongated indexes and narrower lugs for enhanced elegance and comfort.

The dial's intricate texture mirrors the birch tree's bark, evoking a sense of natural grace. A unique feature lies within the exhibition case back, revealing a wagtail-shaped click, paying homage to the bird native to Morioka, the home of Grand Seiko's craftsmanship. Additionally, the movement's birch-inspired finishing and the studio's natural surroundings are showcased, adding a touch of serenity to the watch's allure. The crocodile leather band, complemented by a three-fold clasp with a push-button release, ensures both security and luxury in wear.

The Grand Seiko SLGW003 embodies the essence of traditional watchmaking, melding meticulous craftsmanship with innovative engineering. It stands as a testament to Grand Seiko's commitment to excellence, offering enthusiasts a timeless and refined timepiece that celebrates the art of horology.
