進化 5 EVOLUTION

The Evolution of Grand Seiko from the Past to the Present and into the Future

At the two workshops that produce Grand Seiko watches, the Grand Seiko Studio Shizukuishi and the Shinshu Watch Studio, development continues to further evolve the three types of movement: the 9S mechanical movement, the 9R Spring Drive movement, and the 9F quartz movement.
In addition, in terms of design, while carrying on the traditional design philosophy of Grand Seiko, Grand Seiko has established the “Evolution 9 Style” suitable for the modern era.
We also invest effort in material development and after-sales service systems to ensure that our watches continue to be used and enjoyed across generations.

Looking to the future, Grand Seiko will continue to evolve with the aim of providing watches that can be cherished across generations.

  • T0 Constant-force Tourbillon

    T0 Constant-force Tourbillon

    The concept movement "T0," announced in September 2020, is the world's first movement to integrate two complication mechanisms, "constant-force" and "tourbillon," on the same axis. The regular ticking sound of the "tourbillon" combined with the impact sound of the "constant-force" creates a unique ticking sound reminiscent of a 16th note in music.
