the reason of why Grand Seiko watch are being so attractive, the polishing method was using Zaratsu way (Japanese ancient's Ninja Katana blade polishing), making the case so shine and mirror effect.

With the new 44GS case, the most fascinated design from the watch is being polish and brush in many different angle makes it "light and shadow" feeling, the watch case reflect from every single environment around you where you can enjoy looking at your watch in different color and style !
I was once hear from a friend said GS metal case was forge with 13x from a raw metal, which is a lot harder and more resistance to scratch/dent compare to most of swiss watch which is lower, i have no proof on this but as far from my watch collection, i can feel the GS stainless steel watch case is somewhere similar to platinum case!
less talk, more pix, i'm not pro enough to capture the best, and in fact i wish i have a clean room to makes photograph as the small lil dust keep on sticking on the case no matter how many time i'd try to clean up with micro fiber
lastly, the lugs area from this GS, you could see different angle treat with different way of polishing, something that is not easily achieve without skillful artisan, the beauty of it is just .... speechless
*the black part is not black in color but reflection, interesting right ?
thanks for viewing
