Seiko Presage and Isshu Tamura present the magical beauty of the dark green Urushi dial
What is undoubtedly the most interesting and beautiful element of the latest Seiko Presage Craftsmanship Kanazawa Urushi Limited Edition SPB295J1 watch is the extraordinary dial, made using the Urushi technique by master Isshu Tamura, whose workshop is located in the city of Kanazawa. Urushi is a hand lacquering technique that has been known since ancient times, and is now highly regarded around the world for the beauty and practicality of works finished using this method. Urushi combines traditional Japanese craftsmanship passed down from generation to generation with industrial art, which is a manifestation of aesthetic sense and incredible craftsmanship.
The Seiko Presage SPB295J1 lacquer dial was created using innovative production methods - the lacquer itself was obtained from the sap of Japanese trees. This original work of art required painstaking, precise and multi-step work involving alternating lacquer coating and polishing of the surface until it was perfectly smooth and the desired colour depth was brought out. Just one glance at the striking dial of the limited edition Presage Craftsmanship Kanazawa Urushi is enough to leave anyone who sees it completely mesmerised. Immerse yourself in the fascinating green of Kanazawa's summer landscape. Admire the intense shade of moss greening the enchanting Kenrokuen garden. The dark olive green colour is both an evocation of memories associated with nature's abundance and prosperity, and an opportunity to relax and soothe the senses.
Japanese watchmaking precision Seiko Presage Craftsmanship Kanazawa Urushi Limited Edition
The Seiko Presage Craftsmanship Kanazawa Urushi Limited Edition presents a moment where tradition meets modernity, and unrivalled workmanship and reliability meet perfect precision. The luscious, dark and shimmering green of the dial is matched by gold hands and white accents, which allude to the reflections and rays of the sun shining through the leaves of the trees.
In addition, the elegant dial also features three retrograde indications. There is a power reserve indicator on the left, a day display on the right and a date display at the bottom. The smooth operation is guaranteed by the Japanese Seiko 6R24 automatic movement with manual winding. The watch boasts a power reserve of 45 hours, a frequency of 28,800 beats per hour and an additional stop-seconds function.
The elegance and vintage style of the limited edition Seiko Presage Craftsmanship Kanazawa Urushi watch
But that's not all, the timeless character, class and luxury of the limited-edition Seiko Presage SPB295J1 watch is underlined by a design reminiscent of the vintage style of 1950s and retro watches. The silver stainless steel case, the polished bezel and the conical, fluted crown with an "S" are a nod to that era. The transparent screw-down caseback is engraved with the limited edition number. This elegant workmanship is further emphasised by the traditional black strap made of soft and comfortable genuine leather. On top of this, the butterfly clasp guarantees a perfect fit on the wrist.
