Grand Seiko SBGW321: Limited Edition Inspired by the Elegance of Nishikigoi Carp

Discover the Grand Seiko SBGW321, a watch inspired by the Nishikigoi, iridescent Japanese carp, symbols of harmony and elegance in traditional Japanese gardens. Japanese gardens, true works of natural art, embody Japanese aesthetics, celebrating the cycle of the seasons at the heart of daily life.

This limited edition for Europe is inspired by the Nishikigoi, essential elements of the ponds in Chisen Teien gardens, created to provide a space for soothing contemplation since the 9th century. This aristocratic pastime of observing ornamental carp has spread around the world, where they are often referred to as the “jewels of swimming”.

The Grand Seiko SBGW321 pays tribute to this tradition with a captivating design: its bright red dial recalls the colors of the Nishikigoi, enhanced by a spiral pattern evoking scales shimmering under the sun’s rays. The silvered stainless steel case is complemented by gold accents on the logo and seconds hand, while the black strap completes this masterpiece, a true symbol of timeless elegance and watchmaking expertise.
