The Eichi II - Japanese watchmaking at its finest
The team credited with that honor is Seiko’s Micro Artist Studio in the township of Shiojin , in Nagano Perfecture. This highly-acclaimed team of 15 engineers and watchmakers produces only two dozen watches a year, including the Credor Minute Repeater or ...
A magnificient timepiece!
Lucky you and congrats Sam - another fine achievement! I was drooling over it when I visited the Seiko Premium Boutique in Ginza just over a week ago. A nice fit. This one also looked interesting with the enamel dial. Do let us know if the timekeeping is ...
As I always said - Fernando - we have similar tastes, fortunately, not in women :P
The enamel dial is superb! You should have gone for both pieces! Best Sam
OMG, what a hefty priced Seiko! Congratulations, very fine art, indeed, watch making...
at it's best. Rgds Raymond
Thanks
I like the larger dial (compared to the Eichi 1) and the line indices (compared to the Arablic numerals of the predecessor). The power reserve indicator positioned at the back certainly makes the dial neater....
Thanks Terence...
I saw it last year and couldn't lose it in my mind. SJX urged me to go for it. You should read his review.
One word...
...Grail What a fantastic timepiece. Congrats and wear it in good health.
Congratulations!
Dream watch for me Hope you\'ll enjoy it for decades to come and that it will time many significant moments for you - with great precision
What a beauty! I wish I could see this in the flesh.
Too bad I missed it when travelling in Tokyo. Had I known it was at the Premium Boutique I would've gone! A well deserved congrats! Simply stunning. Please, if you do have the time, could you do a owner's review? Cheers, Cholack
I understand there are several pieces floating around in Tokyo
But none of them could offer as good a discount as I got from my AD
Nice overall look
It looks nice in general. Great classic dress watch. But the dial seems a little bit to pale for me. I prefer some guilloche pattern on it.
Yes, a bit simple for most people's tastes
But the beauty lies in the movement and its finishing
All together it's a fantastic collaboration of artisans
They make the Eichi II what it is. Photos from my visit to the factory last year. Mike Painting the dial markers - not a great shot but you don't interrupt a guy doing this! Assembly in progress cleaning the movement ...
Great pictures!
I have not visited the manufactury myself. Bet it would be very interesting....
