The brand philosophy “THE NATURE OF TIME” is based on the sensibility of being inspired by nature and the changing seasons, and the image of a craftsman who strives to master each path to get to the essence of time. It expresses these two Japanese spiritualities. “Grand Seiko Studio Shizukuishi”, which is responsible for manufacturing Grand Seiko mechanical models, is located overlooking the majestic Mt. Iwate.

Iwate, which is thought to have been formed approximately 700,000 years ago, is one of the mountains that has undergone the most aggressive activity in Japan, which is home to more than 100 active volcanoes. You can get a sense of its history from the rugged mountain features and the traces of lava flows that spread across the northern foot of the mountain. The dial of this work was inspired by the eternal passage of time carved into Mt. Iwate, which is respected by craftsmen. The newly developed bold radial dial pattern was inspired by the ridges of Mt. Iwate seen from a bird’s eye view. The clear blue coloring that resembles water and the calm air that envelops Mt. Iwate makes the dynamic ridgeline stand out clearly. Ever Brilliant Steel, a stainless steel with the world’s highest level of corrosion resistance
