A Dial Where Dynamism And Delicacy Coexist.
SBGH349
An "icefall" is a natural phenomenon where water flowing from a waterfall slowly freezes over time at sub-zero temperatures. This design captures the fantastical sight seen in the depths of winter on Mount Iwate, as viewed from the Grand Seiko Studio Shizukuishi, the manufacturer of Grand Seiko's mechanical models. The design expresses this scene with a dynamic yet delicate pattern and a unique pale blue color. The exterior is made of bright titanium, which is lighter than stainless steel, more rust-resistant, and more scratch-resistant.
Equipped With "Caliber 9S85"
The movement features the high-beat "Caliber 9S85" movement, which vibrates 10 times per second, minimizing variations in accuracy and achieving stable precision. This mechanical movement re-examines the materials used for the parts crucial to accuracy, achieving the torque necessary for high-speed vibrations and a practical power reserve of approximately 55 hours when fully wound.
