GRAND SEIKO 56GS Hi-Beat 18K Yellow Gold ref.5641-5000 cal.5641A / No Date

The final chapter of the mechanical Grand Seiko.

Known as the 56GS, this model sits at the end point of the mechanical Grand Seiko.

The movement is the Cal.5641A.

A no-date specification with adjustment in five positions and temperature compensation.

Its stable accuracy makes it a watch many people still choose to live with today.

Hammered gold, a wavering form.

The case is a tonneau in solid 18k gold.

Hammering is applied across the top, the sides and the dial.

The surface wavers slightly as it takes the light, showing an expression that seems to reflect the memory of the material.

With the strap, the weight is 51.4g.

That weight sitting at the wrist adds a definite presence.

The memory of a snowfield.

The dial is known as Snowflake.

A fine, quiet texture spreads across it, like a snowfield nobody has stepped on.

Its expression is still exactly as it was.

Compositional beauty for reading the time.

The indexes and hands are narrow batons.

A classical composition, with black applied to the upper surfaces to raise legibility.

A design where form and function are quietly in harmony.

Japanese engineering and taste.

A watch that lets you feel, at the wrist, the precision and the taste that Japanese making holds.

The no-date 56GS circulates in small numbers, and its composition carries a quiet scarcity.

It suits any occasion, and its dignified bearing stands out.
