A visit to the holy place 🙏
Here are some photos from my visit to Shizukuishi in Iwate back in December. I also ended up getting a little souvenir hehe...

The Shizukuishi river, which is the inspiration for the bridges on the 9SA5 and 9SC5 movements.

Say hello to the studio, designed by Kengo Kuma.

A very good sign! (That I will lose a lot of money today)
Stud screw VS a particularly small grain of rice

Mainplate of the 9SA5, perlage galore.

Bridge that holds the mainspring in the 9SA5, the cote de geneve is super finely done.
T0 constant force tourbillion.

SBGH283 Studio exclusive! Enjoy the shots in the melting snow.
A special rotor for a special watch
Finished to perfection, better than a lot of other Grand Seikos I've held as they tend to differ craftsman to craftsman.
