Marking the end of Autumn at the moment when the frost first embraces the forest, SBGH295 Sōkō Frost is one of two new, US-exclusive Special Edition timepieces exploring the Japanese sekki. Featuring a fine texture that is inspired by the clear blue skies over the Sea of Japan in early winter, the kirazuri “ice blue” dial is a new interpretation of a dial first introduced in 2018. The 62GS case, reimagined from a timepiece launched in 1967, features a mirrored, multi-sided design and a wide, bezel-free dial opening. The case is finished via Grand Seiko’s renowned Zaratsu polishing technique.
