For a less literal—but still totally wintry—take on snowflake nail art, go for an allover silver glitter that mirrors the falling snow. gold snowflake, Earring Ice crystals Snowflake, winter golden snowflakes, template, winter, golden Frame png 1200x1200px 628. While most Grand Seiko watches are pretty discreet on the wrist, the “Blue Snowflake” makes a statement due to its colour. I have magnetized a couple of watches, but never a Spring Drive which leads me to believe that only normal precautions are needed. If you pick up a watch you know has a power reserve indicator, you’ll glance at it before putting the watch on to see if you need to wind it.

Based on machines once produced by Swiss machine-tool maker Gebrüder Sallaz, the machine is proprietary to Seiko, though similar equipment is produced by Japanese specialist Hayashi Seki and used by other Japanese watch brands. May also be used for various content concerning wintertime, cold climates, and winter activity, such as skiing. The movement is rated to within a second a day – and 15 second a month – but in practice a Spring Drive movement runs almost spot-on. I’m pretty happy with it, though I do find it odd that Grand Seiko makes such an accurate movement in terms of time keeping but then includes a date function that can’t tell the difference between months with 30 and 31 days and requires the user to inform the watch about this! Center your print on the lid of your tin and then remove the paper backing from the bottom half, smoothing from its center to securely affix it to its lid.

Being in the shape of a Japanese paper fan, which s perfectly in keeping with the Japanese aesthetic. The details on the indicator are absolute art work, especially attention to gradations, from lighter to darker as the watch is more fully wound.

The 9R65 caliber uses sophisticated modern technology coupled with the skilled hand of a master craftsman for the finest adjustments and highest precision possible, highlighting the seamless passage of time with a Spring Drive movement. And all the time, light and shadow interact to allow the different color shades to create a symphony in blue. The four lugs are finished with the Zaratsu technique, which relies on a lapping machine that produces an exceptionally flat polished surface with minimal distortion. Unlike real snowflakes, there's a way that crafters can create uniform flakes after they've mastered an easy-to-follow technique.Unlike the Grand Seiko “Thin Dress”, for instance, which has a newly-designed case, the “Blue Snowflake” relies on a classic Grand Seiko case style that’s been in the line-up for almost two decades, having first been used for automatic Grand Seiko models. But Tam o’ Banter was suggesting a blue date wheel not black, and I guess ( but could be wrong) was imagining the blue to match the dial. You cannot rest your wrist on a flat surface without feeling the steel loop’s uncomfortable bump beneath. Achieved by varying the plating on the dial blank, the colour is a soothing shade that shows off the texture well.

Last year, Grand Seiko debuted the “Blue Snowflake” SBGA407, the first of the series on a strap instead of bracelet, and also the first one in a smaller, less sporty case, giving it a notably different look from its counterparts.Caliber 9R65 is currently the most standard of the 9R Spring Drive movements, and is used in many Grand Seiko models.

With the recent launch of the next-generation 9RA5 movement in the 60th Anniversary Spring Drive Diver SLGA001, the 9R65 will presumably be phased out in favour of a new calibre, though in practical terms there’s no need to – the 9R65 does what it is supposed to do, and does it well. Chris, thank you, of all the articles I have read about Seiko Spring Drive watches, yours is the first to mention the restrictions Seiko imposes on the wearer.
