Grand Seiko drops the case diameter of its 62GS Heritage Collection offerings to 38mm for two new seasonal Hi-Beat 36000 debuts.
One, the SBGH341 “Sakura-Kakushi” (hiding cherry blossoms), features a pink dial inspired by Shunbun, the vernal equinox of late March.

Its colors echo the effect of snow as it covers the blooming cherry blossoms of the Tohoku region.

The second debut, the SBGH343 Sakura-Wakaba, is inspired by the Seimei season of early April with its patterned green dial that blends cherry blossom hues and the colors of young leaves.
Both offer a 38mm 62GS titanium case finished by Grand Seiko artisans to the high standards of Zaratsu polishing. Each is also attached to the wrist with a beautifully finished ‘high-intensity’ titanium bracelet secured by a three-fold clasp.
Inside each watch, Grand Seiko fits its highly-touted Hi-Beat 36000 9S85 Caliber, calibrated to deliver +5 to -3 seconds of accuracy daily with an impressive fifty-five hours of power reserve.
Like all the Heritage models in this collection, you’ll find extra-strong anti-magnetic protection (to 4,800 A/m) and water resistance to 100 meters.
Price: $7,300.
