Grand Seiko ‘Shunbun’ Cherry Blossom Spring Drive Watch SBGA413G

The Grand Seiko ‘Shunbun’ Cherry Blossom Spring Drive Watch SBGA413G beautifully captures the essence of Japanese artistry and horology. Inspired by Shunbun, the Vernal Equinox, this model reflects the transition of seasons with its dial’s delicate pale pink hue. Reminiscent of cherry blossom petals gently floating on a river during the early days of spring. This serene scene, known as Hana-Ikada, celebrates both the beauty of Sakura and the fleeting nature of time. Both of which Grand Seiko encapsulates in the design of this watch.

This timepiece is a modern re-interpretation of the iconic 62GS, first introduced in 1967. It was Grand Seiko’s first watch to feature an automatic movement. Maintaining its design legacy, the watch showcases sharp edges, distortion-free surfaces achieved through Zaratsu polishing. It also has a wide dial opening made possible by the bezel-free construction. This timeless design continues to adhere to the Grand Seiko Style, with its flawless craftsmanship and minimalist beauty.

Additionally, at the heart of the Shunbun is the Spring Drive caliber 9R65, a hand-assembled movement created by the artisans at the Shinshu Watch Studio. This precise movement delivers a 72-hour power reserve and an impressive accuracy of ±1 second per day (±15 seconds per month). Thus highlighting the innovative technology behind Grand Seiko’s Spring Drive watches.
