FAQs
What makes Ever-Brilliant Steel different from standard steel?
Ever-Brilliant Steel has a higher level of corrosion resistance and a noticeably brighter aesthetic compared to traditional surgical-grade stainless steel.
How often should I service this movement?
Mechanical watches typically require professional servicing every 3 to 5 years to ensure accuracy and oil longevity.
Is the watch water-resistant?
Grand Seiko models are generally water-resistant, but you should check the specific depth rating in your manual and avoid exposing the watch to high-pressure water.
Can I adjust the bracelet myself?
It is highly recommended to have the bracelet adjusted by an authorized professional to avoid scratching the links or damaging the pins.
Why is the 12 o'clock index wider than the others?
The wider index is a design choice intended to improve quick legibility and orientation when checking the time at a glance.
Where is this watch manufactured?
This watch is manufactured at the Grand Seiko Studio Shizukuishi in Japan.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your timepiece, wind the watch fully if it has been stationary for more than three days, taking advantage of its 80-hour power reserve. To set the time, gently pull the crown to the second click and rotate to move the hands. For cleaning, use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth to wipe away fingerprints and oils. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can dull the Zaratsu-polished surfaces. Because of its premium nature, it is recommended to store the watch in a padded watch box when not in use to protect the mirror-finished case sides from accidental impacts or scratches.
