A Limited Edition Timepiece Inspired by Japan’s Natural Beauty
The Grand Seiko Evolution 9 Genbi Valley Hi-Beat Limited Edition SLGH021G is a compelling expression of Grand Seiko’s commitment to craftsmanship, precision and poetic design. Inspired by the lush landscape and vibrant hues of the Genbi Valley, a scenic natural monument in Iwate Prefecture, this limited edition watch captures the spirit of its namesake through a richly textured green dial that reflects light and depth beautifully.
Presented within the refined proportions of Grand Seiko’s Evolution 9 case design in Ever-Brilliant Steel, this model blends contemporary aesthetics with traditional Japanese watchmaking principles. The Ever-Brilliant Steel case and bracelet provide superior corrosion resistance and a distinct radiant finish that pairs exquisitely with the green dial.
Limited to only 1,000 pieces worldwide, the SLGH021G is highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts, with UK availability often scarce and most authorised boutiques currently out of stock. Potential buyers in the UK typically need to contact Grand Seiko boutiques or authorised retailers to enquire about allocation or wait-lists.
