This model incorporates the 9S86 caliber, the high specification movement that offers the same precision (-5 to +3 seconds per day) and the same power reserve (55 hours) as the central 9S85 caliber, while also offering the GMT function that the international traveler should ensure that the accuracy of the displayed time is not affected when the time zone is changed. The GMT hand shows the time in the local time zone. The exterior design is a modern take on the stunning "Grand Seiko Style" - the embodiment of the Grand Seiko design philosophy that was first established for the 44GS in 1967 - and features a large distortion-free mirror surface.
A wonderfully soft and shiny finish has been created on the dial, with a 'Mount Iwate pattern' inspired by the contours of the Mount's many ripples. Iwate, the mountain visible through the windows of the Shizuku-Ishi Watch Studio where Grand Seiko mechanical watches are made.
