The Grand Seiko Tentagraph SLGC001 mechanical chronograph watch has been unveiled as a first-ever for the brand to provide wearers with a high-end watch to keep time. The watch features a 43.2mm case that's water resistant to 100-meters and boasts a three-link bracelet with a triple-fold clasp, which are all crafted using zaratsu-polished titanium for durability. Coming in at 15.33mm in thickness, the watch has a fixed ceramic bezel, a notched logo crown and hided the brand's new Caliber 9SC5 movement within.
The Grand Seiko Tentagraph SLGC001 mechanical chronograph watch delivers a three-day power reserve even if it's being used on the chronograph function and is made in Japan. Priced at $13,700, the timepiece is slated to go on sale this June.
