Grand Seiko Elegance Hi-Beat 39.5mm

Grand Seiko Elegance Collection with stainless steel 39.5mm case, crocodile strap, cream coloured dial. A true connoisseur’s watch, this piece from Grand Seiko offers vintage styling and applied arabic numerals for the hours. The cream-colored dial is inspired by a traditional color of silk known as Shironeri. Powering this watch is a masterpiece of Grand Seiko engineering, the 9S85 automatic Hi-Beat movement. Grand Seiko’s highly accurate Hi-Beat automatic movements are some of the best kept secrets in contemporary watchmaking. The SBGH213 pairs one of these fantastic movements with a case and dial that have fantastic vintage flair. The silver numerals and hands lend a sporty elegance to the watch. The SBGH263 was released at Baselworld 2018 to great fanfare, except that watch has gold numerals and hands, while this model tones it down and keeps the aesthetic uniform with silver all around.
