Grand Seiko SBGE227 Spring Drive GMT Slate Dial

Grand Seiko SBGE227 Watch Review

The Grand Seiko Elegance collection brings both technical excellence and elegance to its products, with a spectacular range of outstanding watches. The Grand Seiko SBGE227 is a new addition to the Elegance collection. It is powered with Spring Drive technology, which is a unique technology for watches. It combines power with an electronic operator to provide timekeeping accuracy that cannot be matched by any mechanical watch.

The Grand Seiko SBGE227 has a caliber 9R66 fitted with a GMT display feature. The battery sends electricity to a quartz oscillator whose precise vibrations are sensed by an integrated circuit. These integrated circuits shift the gears forward by approximately one second. This allows a high degree of quality for the watch, with Grand Seiko quartz models reaching an annual rate of ±10 seconds.

The thing that makes this classic watch truly iconic is the irreducibility of its design. The Grand Seiko SBGE227 has a self-winding drive system with 9S mechanical manual capacity and a 3-day power reserve. Like all other mechanical watches, the Grand Seiko SBGE227 is operated by a mainspring. This modern way of producing power makes it much easier for the watch to be completely independent, without the need for a battery or other source of power. The Grand Seiko SBGE227 is a durable watch that comes with an elegant design and broad support. The second-hand movement and a brown dial reflective of the elegant deck offer a delicate finish.

The date window is revealed at 3 o'clock. It has a reflective metal frame that suits the quality of the watch and retains the date window and dial overall effect. The contrast created by the GMT hand and the two dial rings at the top and bottom allow you to see if the GMT hand is indicating AM or PM time.

The dial of the Grand Seiko SBGE227 is brown in color and has a shiny texture. The movement of the second hand, smoothly drifting over the coffee brown dial allowed by the unique scrolling mechanism, gives the timepiece a traditional look despite the fact that this motion is distinct from that of a mechanical watch.

The Grand Seiko SBGE227 retains a formal style with its crocodile leather band. The leather band stands out against the brown dial, bringing a refined taste to the watch and good visibility. There is a shiny lubricant applied on the indexes as well as the hour and minute hand confirming the EDC aspirations, strengthened further by 100m of water resistance.

The case material is stainless steel and the glass is double-curved sapphire crystal. In addition, there is an anti-reflective coating on the inner surface of the glass. As Grand Seiko is well known for using proprietary techniques to polish its cases, the case's mirror finish has an outstanding shine. The case has a thickness of 14mm and a diameter of 40.2mm.
