How Grand Seiko Spring Drive works

How does Grand Seiko Spring Drive work and how does it compare to a traditional mechanical Watch? 🤔

if this was a swiss made watch. it would be hailed as magic and priced at half a million dollars

Spring drive is basically magic and I straight love it.

I’ll tell you how it works. It works extremely well!

Phenomenal. No other luxury watch brand can match this movement. Not Rolex, not Omega, not even the real high end lines like Patek, AP etc… their movements all have there second hand shaking and shuddering. GS smooth asf.

Gotta love Seiko for their innovation. Eagerly awaiting my first, a lowly Seiko 5 field watch.

Magnets truly are a force we take for granted.

Spring Drive is an impressive technology, but one of the reasons way I like mechanical watches, is because of the tick tock sounds. Of all the watches that I have owned, Longines has the best sound. If its quite in my office, I can hear it working arms length away. 😁

True but if i may be honest, Grand Seiko Hi-Beat also worth to be mentioned. Its just mesmerizing seeing it beat that fast

GS Spring Drive is one of two grail watches for me. The other is a Zenith El Primero

Resellers hate GS because of its resale value. Although GS is very innovative with their watches, their catalog is just too broad. People like the feeling of exclusivity hence the thirst for corny watches that you can only get through a waitlist.

Seiko will always be considered a value brand no matter how much their top tier costs. They did it to themselves.

Imagine rolex come up with this moment. They would have sell it for 100k each minimum on their watch

I’m just starting to get into watches and hot diggity damn these grand Seikos are really something else

I find the spring drive watch quite agreeable, particularly given my ownership of an Omega Seamaster Chronometer; I genuinely appreciate my Seiko LX titanium spring drive timepiece.

I have a sieko spring drive I had a choice to get a rolex or the seiko I bought the seiko rolex every one has one but this watch is just magical the tech in this watch is Second to none just live it

Seiko years of experience, since 1881 🎉

It would be quite interesting to hear from people who have owned a GS Spring drive since the watch was introduced in 1999. I'd like to know if there are any watches that are still running, especially any that have never been serviced and see how the watch performs.

SLGA021 owner here. The stated accuracy of springdrive is being modest. They say +/-1 second per day for 9R65 and +/-0.5 seconds per day for 9RA2 but in actual use case, mine ran at -0.5 seconds for 1 whole month. When i first got it, I wore the watch daily and checked the time every morning against atomic time app on my phone. I stopped checking after a month so i could use my other watches. who knows how much further it could have gone?❤

I love my spring drive! I wear it more than my Daytona or my GMT Pepsi.
