This limited edition model inherits the fundamental style of the '44GS' while incorporating practical features like an automatic movement and metal bracelet, which were not available at the time of the original release.

While the design of the '44GS' is highly appealing, an automatic movement is preferable to a manual-wind. This watch is perfect for those who desire a bracelet that can be worn with confidence, even during sweaty summer days.

The timekeeping accuracy in daily use is on par with the manual-wind models, with a daily rate of +10 to -1 seconds. The dial comes in two colors: white, as pictured, and black. The black dial is exclusively available at Grand Seiko Master Shops.
