Grand Seiko Katana

The Grand Seiko Katana Ref. SBGA493 is a striking example of Japanese artistry and precision, part of the Heritage Collection that pays tribute to the sharp elegance of the traditional katana sword. Its deep red dial, inspired by the glowing steel of a freshly forged blade, reflects Grand Seiko’s combining tradition with cutting-edge technology.

Driven by the Spring Drive Caliber 9R65, this timepiece achieves unparalleled smoothness and precision, with an accuracy of ±1 second per day and a perfectly gliding seconds hand. The 40mm stainless steel case offers a refined balance of strength and polish, finished with Grand Seiko’s signature Zaratsu technique for distortion-free reflection.

This example remains in very good condition and comes as a complete full set with its original box, papers, and accessories. A subtle red strap is also included, complementing the fiery dial and adding a modern twist to its classic steel bracelet configuration.
