Here we have a 2016 Grand Seiko Hi-Beat GMT SBGJ021 with a 40mm stainless steel case, Limited Edition of 700, which ours is number 239. The gentle curve of the case ends with exquisite brushed and polished tapered drilled lugs, a lug-to-lug length of 46.5mm and a case thickness of 14mm, giving the watch an impressive wrist presence. The case is a reinterpretation of their iconic 44GS case of 1967 with distinctive angles and finishing. On the right side is a screw-down signed crown sitting slightly recessed, and a smooth bevel-edged polished bezel holds a dual-curved sapphire crystal AR coated. The star of the show is this rich, deep green dial inspired by the peacock's beautiful feathers; in the past, it was believed that peacocks symbolised immortality and renewal. The pattern is perfectly stamped, creating a mesmerising circular motion. An outer 24-hour chapter ring surrounds the minute track with Zaratsu polished facet-edged indexes. At 3 o’clock, a framed date window and elegant dauphine hands are Zaratsu polished with razor edges, and a gold-toned arrow hand indicates the 24-hour position. At 12 o’clock, we have the applied “GS” and “Grand Seiko” underneath; at 6 o’clock “, Automatic” “High-Beat 36000” and a gold-toned GMT complete this spiritual-inspired timepiece. On the reverse, we have a screw-down exhibition case back inside an automatic Grand Seiko Cal. 9S86, 37 jewels, 36,000 beats per hour. Pulling the crown out to its first position enables the hour hand to be adjusted without stopping the minutes or the second hand so that the accuracy is not compromised. Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) technology fabricates its precision parts, which are expertly decorated in Côtes de Genève. It comes paired with its original Grand Seiko 19mm polished and brushed stainless steel bracelet with a signed push button folding clasp and comes with its Seiko presentation box and papers.
