Grand Seiko Heritage 44GS Manual-Winding SBGW299
SBGW299
The Grand Seiko SBGW299 is a manually wound mechanical watch from the Heritage Collection, paying tribute to the original 44GS from 1967 with a modern and refined interpretation. Its dial is finished in a rich blue color with a pattern that reflects traditional Japanese design elements such as sliding doors, folding screens, and fans. This pattern creates a dynamic, fan-like radiance that changes with the light, symbolizing the beauty of time’s passing.
The stainless steel case measures 36.5 mm in diameter, 11.6 mm in thickness, and 42.7 mm in length from lug to lug, offering a comfortable and balanced fit. Powered by the manual-winding Caliber 9S64, the SBGW299 delivers approximately 72 hours of power reserve and provides precision in daily use. A box-shaped sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on the inner surface protects the dial, while the screw-down case back adds durability. Additional features include 10 bar water resistance, magnetic resistance of 4,800 A/m, and a total weight of approximately 132 grams. The stainless steel bracelet is secured with a three-fold clasp and push-button release, completing a timepiece that combines classic design, traditional craftsmanship, and everyday practicality.
