Grand Seiko SBGV207 Quartz Review

Grand Seiko is a brand that demonstrates great pride in quality and function. They go to great lengths to honor the origins of the brand while embracing the future of watchmaking, and each piece from the heritage collection showcases this blend of history and the future. The Grand Seiko SBGV207 is a quartz model that carries on that pride of heritage for Grand Seiko with its modern interpretation of the 44GS design concept created in 1967. The Skilled craftsmen at Grand Seiko handcraft this beautiful timepiece making sure every part works in perfect order, and the design matches the high functionality of their crafted timepieces. The Grand Seiko SBGV207 brings a sense of allure to a 9F quartz movement and fits well into any lifestyle whether it’s the work or play. Looks good, fits great, and works even better what more could you ask for in a luxury timepiece. Grand Seiko sets the standard for luxury watches and The SBGV207 withholds that standard perfectly!

The Grand Seiko SBGV207 priced at $3,100 gives us an elegant design with its expansive sleek black dial, silver hands and twelve silver multifaceted hour markers. This watch also uses the Zaratsu polishing combining mirror-finished and hairline-finished surfaces giving a three-dimensional look, so the SBGV207 gives wonderful visibility and radiance in design. The Grand Seiko SBGV207 makes use of stainless steel material for the case and band, Dual curved sapphire glass with anti-reflective coating on the inner surface for optimal visibility, and a three-fold clasp with the push-button release for extra security without issue. The SBGV207 gives us a water resistance of up to 10 bars or 100 meters, has magnetic resistance equipped, a screw-back case that carries the traditional lion emblem on it, and date display. The Grand Seiko SBGV207 is a quartz movement sporting a 9F82 Caliber that has an accuracy of + - 10 seconds per year. The 9F82 caliber offers the same functions of a 9F62 caliber but fitted to fit the slightly bigger size of the SBGV207 case. These calibers carry a rich history executed into each part; The first quartz Grand Seiko model came around in 1988, and in 1993 they set a new standard for the quartz movement with the 9F8 series. This series incorporated new features like the backlash auto-adjust mechanism, the twin pulse control motor, and the instant date change mechanism. The Grand Seiko SBGV207 continues with this modern standard for quartz movement with the 9F82 caliber. The twin pulse control motor was Grand Seiko’s way of defying the higher torque normally found in mechanical watches. The SBGV207’s twin pulse control motor system is capable of turning longer and heavier hands all while maintaining power reserve! This system allows for the second’s hand to make two consecutive steps per second which are triggered by two successive pulse signals, and this allows for the SBGV207 9F82 caliber quartz movement to output more torque so the heavier hour, minute and seconds hands move seamlessly undetectable to the naked eye.

Now one may ask, how does Grand Seiko compete with the mechanical watches fine-tune precision? Well, the 9F82 caliber quartz movement found in the SBGV207 features a regulation switch that allows for that mechanical watch precision, and if ever there is a situation where the watch is too fast or slow this switch can easily correct the inaccuracy. Although the true standard of the Grand Seiko brand means that most people will never have to use this clever backup switch. The Grand Seiko SBGV207 also provides a little extra to their standard of quality with their protective shield construction. This protective shield is to keep the quality of the rotor which is the heart of the quartz movement. The structure will help prevent dust particles from getting into the finer delicate pieces of the movement during battery changes and keeps the lubricating oils for the step motor pivot away from the air. The wall separating the battery from the gear even has a peephole studded with a ruby to help with maintaining the best quality during battery changes. Grand Seiko does all this to make sure of a high-quality standard and this is just a few ways that Grand Seiko takes pride in the longevity of their watches. The Grand Seiko SBGV207 carries with it the depth of the Grand Seiko tradition of quality and beautiful intuitive designs. From its use of the best materials to its master crafted and high functioning technology there is no going wrong with any Grand Seiko watch, however, the SBGV207 holds its own against all competitors and other Grand Seiko watches. A wonderfully crafted design for a beautiful fit on the wrist, master crafted technology for the best functionality possible and obvious love for luxury watches is everything you will find with the Grand Seiko SBGV207.
