Grand Seiko Evolution 9 Wako Clock Tower SLGH015 2022 [Preowned]

Overview 

In the heart of Tokyo's famed Ginza district, the iconic Wako clock tower stands tall as a monument to timeless Japanese elegance. In the year 2022, to celebrate the tower's 90th anniversary, Grand Seiko has crafted an ultra-exclusive tribute limited to just 50 pieces worldwide.

The SLGH015 "Wako" edition takes its design cues directly from the department store's heritage granite facade. The dial radiates in a rich champagne hue, its subtle warmth reminiscent of those solid stone walls. Applied indices and dauphine hands maintain Grand Seiko's signature balanced sportiness.

Beating within is the manufacture's esteemed 9SA5 hi-beat automatic caliber. In addition to its silky smooth 36,000 vph, this movement offers an incredible 80 hours of power reserve courtesy of its twin mainspring barrels. A true feat of high-end watchmaking.

The 40mm stainless steel case showcases Grand Seiko's renowned Zaratsu distortion-free polishing. Yet peer through the transparent caseback and you'll find individual numbering alongside the "Wako" engraving - a subtle nod to the exclusivity of this special release. Water resistant to 100 meters, it's built to modern sporting standards as well.

Only 50 collectors will have the chance to own this intersection of Grand Seiko's manufacture expertise and Wako's storied Tokyo heritage. For those enamored with Japanese horology and design, the SLGH015 is a must-have grail capturing Ginza's iconic spirit.
