JAMM PICK OF THE DAY

Grand Seiko – Masterpiece Collection Spring Drive 8-Day Jewellery Watch: SBGD213

This watch comes with Diamonds, blue sapphires, and Platinum 950 is inspired by the white lion.  The powerful profile of the lion has been an enduring symbol of Grand Seiko ever since the first Grand Seiko introduced in 1960, when a gold medallion depicting a lion graced the case back. The strength and power of the white lion is brought to life through the jeweller’s art, graced by blue sapphires in honour of Grand Seiko’s signature colour. This piece combines the precision of Spring Drive, high legibility through carefully placed gems, and exquisite artistry and craftsmanship.

The center of the dial is mother-of-pearl in Grand Seiko’s signature blue. The case, bezel and dial have 266 diamonds and 27 blue sapphires, all set by hand.  The lugs speak to the power of the lion. Diamonds are embedded on the case and baguette-cut diamonds adorn the bezel. The diamonds are set to create a single, flat surface. A single brilliant-cut blue sapphire is set into the crown. The watch comes with a leather strap and has a three-fold clasp with push-button release. It is a limited edition with just eight pieces.
