A full length video on discussions of Grand Seiko watches, and why it is relevant and highly desirable for the watch collector.

New Video: Exploring Grand Seiko

In this episode, we explore the Grand Seiko marque. We begin with the story of how this incredible brand expanded from being only offered in the Japanese market, into an internationally marketed and well recognised brand of its own standing. The early watches were double signed with Seiko and Grand Seiko, but now only carry the latter signature after the standalone brand was established in 2017. In 2018, the Grand Seiko Corporation of America was established. With Europe established in 202, and Asia Pacific in 2022.

We explore the various movements offered by the brand: viz mechanical, quartz and spring drive mechanisms. We take a look at the manufacturing facilities in Morioka and Shiojiri including the Micro Artist Studio. And discussed the Eichi, Eichi II, Sonnerie, Minute Repeater and also talk about the special status of a manufacture in Tokyo which makes the Kodo Tourbillon.

We also took a quick tour of the event we co-hosted with Grand Seiko Asia Pacific in their MBS Boutique in January 24, 2025.

And talk to some of our guests to understand what they feel about the brand and watches.

We round the discussion up with Chinese New Year greetings from all of the Deployant Team.
