Grand Seiko Chronograph



Grand Seiko is a watch brand that I like a lot. It is known for its nature-inspired dial craftsmanship, stunning event finishing, and innovative activities. For me, the one technology that creates the Grand Seiko jump out among its peers is the Spring Drive technology. Thin air else will you find this sort of smooth sweeps, with the activity taking absolutely no steps in slow motion - truly enchanting. So when the new 9RA2 having a 5 day power reserve premiered it was only a matter of time period before I added anyone to the collection. When the original Hi-Beat White Birch came out, I ran across it a little too flashy intended for my personal taste, so when the harder subtle Spring Drive SLGA009 was released in early 2022, I had fashioned to add it to this collection. The dial feel of this watch is more simple and has all the qualities to check the strap. So with out further ado, allow me to disclose some Delugs pairings that we believe will make this watch really shine!



Matte black alligator buckskin strap - perfect for conventional occasions

This combining with the black alligator band will probably get 100% endorsement from the folks at Grand Seiko. It dresses the particular watch perfectly and gives a touch of formality to the see. I would even say that much more it ready for formal instances and turns the performance-minded SLGA009 into a proper outfit watch.



Fast Shell Cordovan Slim Secure - For Navy Suits/Smart Casual Wear

I like to look for straps in which complement the elements on the face. In this case it will be the hot orange second hand on the birch shrub. The latter matches properly with the deep navy blue about the Cordoba strap. Under correct light conditions, the hold on their owners of the strap will also be displayed. Definitely perfect with a fast suit or even a more laid-back wardrobe option.



Thin light gray nubuck leather strap - permitting the dial take the main stage

There’s a reason this particular strap is one of Delugs’ best-selling models. It moves well with anything using a steel case, especially if very low white dial. It also will keep the spotlight on the watch’s dial and serves as the best supporting role. In the case of this specific White Birch Spring Drive, that's exactly what you want. A most wonderful choice for everyday use!



Taupe Saffiano Smooth Strap - strap using complementary textures

I adore this pairing because the Saffiano leather texture paired with the actual SLGA009 birch dial ideas makes it feel right at house. It’s a more casual straps pairing, but visually relaxing and feels right at residence in the same environment where craftsmen at Grand Seiko’s Shinshu studio were encouraged. The dial design of the particular SLGA009 is more subtle.



Cognac Crazy Horses Side Seam Strap rapid Showing the casual area of Birch

Each good watch deserves an informal strap, perfect for a walk (or green tea) at the nearby cafe or even as being an accompaniment to an afternoon travel. I believe the Crazy Equine Side-Stitch strap is just the issue to accessorize your watch when allowing you to happily get missing in the mesmerizing sweep on the Spring Drive second hand.
