With a Different Design on Top and Bottom, Encasing the Dial
A collaboration has been realized between "GRAND SEIKO," Japan's leading watch brand, and "HIROKO HAYASHI," a leather goods brand for adults with a playful spirit and unique values. This limited-edition model, embodying the charm of two Japanese brands active worldwide, has been born.
The case design is characterized by beautiful diamonds set in side arches, while the dial features a four-part design in two shades of greige. The accent orange second hand represents the present self, evoking the image of moving back and forth between past and future timelines. It expresses the world of "HIROKO HAYASHI," making the act of telling time a joy.
Two types of straps are offered, featuring "HIROKO HAYASHI's" iconic leather. Designer Hiroko Hayashi recommends the one with a different design on the top and bottom, encasing the dial. Based on a noble blue-gray, the coloring layers beige on the 12 o'clock side and silver on the 6 o'clock side, offering a different appearance depending on whether one looks at it from the front or from the side.
The other strap features a three-dimensional, mesh-like design, characteristic of "HIROKO HAYASHI." Its champagne gold color adds a touch of glamour to the wrist.
This limited edition also comes with a special, original watch case made from "HIROKO HAYASHI" leather, embroidered with an eye motif.
An elegant and chic limited-edition style. This item, which further enhances the allure of a sophisticated woman, is also perfect as a holiday gift.
