REVIEW: The Grand Seiko Hi-Beat SLGH005 White Birch

@GrandSeiko_official #grandseiko #SLGH005 #monochromewatches
-----------------
Today we’ll review a watch that is the best expression of what Grand Seiko is capable of… a watch that mixes a sharp case, with typical Japanese design, a superbly executed dial and an innovative movement. This watch is the Grand Seiko White Birch SLGH005, and we have a closer look at it now. And we also explain its new escapement, the complex Dual Impulse.

IMHO, one of the most iconic watches, ever produced. Great presentation

For over a decades to centuries seiko r&d innovates and engineered a movement from swiss that amd which enables to combine the precision of developing a watch movement to a robust detailed craftsmanship
patience of hardwork endures the incomparable!

hope to hear more insight about this highly coveted watch rather than what it feels to be reading off the press sctipt from GS

The only thing that watch is missing is lume

check out the bulova accutron 2 that has a high beat rate of 262 KHZ. very smooth sweep from the seconds hand

The lettering above the 6 is distracting and unnecessary. Should’ve put it on the back. Otherwise, it’s stunning.

Look at the GS and Grand Seiko logos on the dial. There are two different fonts used, one for the GS and a different font for Grand Seiko. These two fonts are similar but different. They clash. It's like scratching on the chalkboard. No self-respecting type designer would approve. Also, there's no need to say Hi-Beat 36000 80 Hours on the dial. It's cheesy and the information is repeated on the back. Unfortunately, issues such as these will keep Grand Seiko from reaching the heights of, for example, A. Lange & Sohne. Every detail matters.

Terrible design. The bracelet is too wide and no tapering.

It is an industrial watch, made by robots, so the finishing is superior to a factory watch.
