Grand Seiko SBGV205

When Seiko launched the first quartz watch in 1969, no-one imagined the consequences of the new drive technology. The Astron 35SQ ushered in the infamous quartz crisis for countless traditional Swiss watchmakers. The company pays homage to this idiosyncratic history with the Grand Seiko SBGV205. The collection is part of the exclusive Heritage series and impresses with its exceptionally fair price-to-performance ratio. The design of the 40-millimetre quartz watch is simple and timeless.
