Seiko Press Release for 2015 GRAND SEIKO (featuring larger pictures)

 

Grand Seikos for 2015

A faithful re-creation or a modern re-interpretation? It’s your choice.

There are eight references in the new 62GS collection. Four are faithful re-creations of the 1967 original with an automatic caliber and four are modern re-interpretations featuring Grand Seiko’s High Beat and Spring Drive movements. All are limited editions.

Caliber 9S65 drives the 4 re-creation models. One is in steel and the others are in different shades of 18K gold. The lion emblem on the case back, the dial layout, the distinctive hour markers and the dial logotypes (notably “Diashock”) are all inherited from the original 62GS. The dial color of the steel case model is also faithful to the original dial. 

The hi-beat 36,000 caliber is in two of the modern steel-cased versions, while the the Spring Drive caliber fills cases of high-intensity titanium. In these modern versions, the case diameter is wider, there is a see-through case back and the bracelets are metal, in line with today’s tastes.
