Why it's interesting
Grand Seiko's first hand-wound hi-beat in about half a century, and a dress watch that feels like one: under 10 mm thick, 60 g in titanium, with a dial modelled on the birch trees around its Shizukuishi studio. Turn it over to watch the wagtail-shaped click peck as you wind.
Watch DNA. Filled tags are editorial; outlined tags come from the specifications.
