Grand Seiko SBGW315 Limited Edition Singapore



This manual-winding watch celebrates the first anniversary of its first boutique in the region at The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands.

When it comes to business, it sometimes feels like any Japanese organization is either extremely conservative or moving fast. In Southeast Asia, the gears of Grand Seiko Asia Pacific (GSAP) are perpetually in overdrive. It’s been less than two years since the watchmaker established its Asia Pacific office, following on from the Americas and Europe. Since then, the team has been opening new boutiques across Southeast Asia, opening a second store at Changi Airport, and launching its first limited edition watch for the region last year.

Now, on the first anniversary of the MBS store, GSAP has surprised us with another boutique-exclusive limited edition watch. Elegant as always, the 38mm SBGW315 belongs to its Elegant Collection, paying homage to the OG Grand Seiko watch from 1960. The watch’s clean, elegant lines are pleasing to the eye, and the three-hand dial is both functional and classy.

Like all Grand Seiko Limited Editions, the SBGW315 has a special dial: a light winter blue with a fine brushed texture that captures the spirit of the season in Iwate Prefecture, where the factory is located. In winter, the air in Iwate is crisp and cold, with clear and vivid blue skies reflected in the calm lake water. The seconds hand is treated with a dark blue to enhance this characteristic.

Flipping over the Brilliant Hard Titanium case, you can admire the meticulously assembled Calibre 9S64, which was first introduced in 2011 and has been further refined to offer a 72-hour power reserve, so you can wind it on Friday and it will still be running all the way to Monday. While it’s not a high-frequency movement, it still has a COSC accuracy of +5/-3 seconds per day, with an accuracy between +10 and -1 seconds in normal use.

The watch also comes with a special strap produced by Kyoto Leather, which is gold-stamped to give it a beautiful metallic sheen. It is part of the Cool Japan project, which combines traditional Japanese craftsmanship with leather production by Kyoto’s Yuzen or Nishijin textile artisans and tanners from the Himeji region, which is famous for its high-quality leather.
