The richness of nature represents the nature of time according to the philosophy of ‘Nature of Time’ chosen by the Grand Seiko designers to convey the form of the dial Grand Seiko Birch Forest. Thanks to its distinctive birch trunk pattern, Grand Seiko Birch Dial instantly won the hearts of watch lovers around the world. The birch dial creates the same sense of beauty that a visitor to the birch forest receives, bringing the owner closer to nature.
The birch forest dial comes in several variations, including white birch which emulates white birch forest scenery near Shizukuishi Studio, home of Grand Seiko’s mechanical timepieces. The automatic mechanical Evolution 9 collection, model SLGH005 “White Birch” features Hi-beat 80-hour power reserve. The shifting lines of the white birch forest are reproduced together with rough sandy texture accentuated by the brilliant shine of the case and stainless steel bracelet like fine jewellery. SLGH005 White Birch quality is testified to by Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Geneve 2021 (GPHG) and Best of the Best Red Dot Design 2022 awards.
