Bulgari have worked hard those past years and they’ve broken many records the open back let’s you see the beauty of the technology behind this nice watch I let you judge by yourself with the pictures 

Italian craftsmanship 

This Grand Seiko is comparable to a masterpiece. I have always been attracted to GS dials, but here they have surpassed themselves every time I look at it I discover new MAGNIFICENT details I am lucky to have Grand Seikos like the Shunbun, but I have always regretted the luminous in the hands, here I have the solution at night it is a different watch the crown turns on both sides it is my biggest watch yet I have small wrists but it works great I let you judge! Oh yes I forgot, 2000 pieces including one in France for sure

An eye-catching watch

I had been looking for a watch that glows at night for a long time! Here is the Ball Engineer 1917 Rainbow Edition 1000 in the world and one in France cocorico!!! The other engineers glow green at night this one is rainbow with everything that shines!! You go clubbing with that it's your wrist that shines in the dance floor seriously I turn it over at night it stops me from sleeping it is very beautiful with its blue dial I've the day in tritium so the only negative point a little heavy compared to the bracelet

Night watch

For the relaunch of the king seiko they’ve relaunch the little brother of grand seiko this beautiful piece is a limited edition of 1200 yes 1200 worldwide the dial is inspired by the first seiko boutique in Tokyo which sadly burned because of an earthquake too actually think that they did such a little amount of them it’s amazing truly a big fans watch 

The king is back

Good dial always changing colours during depending on sunlight it’s spring drive so the seconds swipe like a sword it’s a forgettable watch because it’s titanium made but with a resistance to scratches so it’s so light you just forget your wearing it the battery reserve on dial is good for me because I like to know when to stop winding but with this watch you got 5 days power so if you wear it every day you’ll never have to wind it 

Best everyday watch 

This for me is what grand seiko do best . A piece of arts!the dial is just amazing the confortable stripes the look of it all 🤩I don’t need to review this just look at it !250 pieces  and this one is in France cocorico .I’ve acquired this beautiful masterpiece in London I really have a special bond with seiko 

Best watch in the world 

The Seiko brand, founded in 1881 by Kintaro Hattori in the Ginza district of Tokyo, has become one of the most influential and respected watch companies in the world. Since the opening of its first store, Seiko has continued a path of constant growth and innovation.
<h2 dir="ltr">History of the Seiko brand</h2>
The year 1924 marked the first watch produced under the Seiko brand. The company continued to develop new technologies, and in 1956 it released the first self-winding wristwatch made in Japan. The real game-changer came in 1969 with the introduction of the Seiko Astron, the world's first quartz watch. This innovation not only changed the direction of Seiko but also revolutionized the entire watch industry.
During the 1970s and 1980s, Seiko solidified its reputation as a technological leader with the development of solar-powered watches and the introduction of professional divers' watches. In 2005, Seiko presented the Spring Drive, a unique movement combining the strength of mechanical watchmaking and the precision of quartz.
In recent years, Seiko has continued to innovate by creating eco-friendly watches and supporting various environmental initiatives. The brand is known for its commitment to quality, precision and sophisticated design.

Here is a king seiko quartz
Year 70, crazy quartz caliber
Found in poor aesthetic condition, I managed to revive it (thanks yoyo), and yes you gave me the Seiko quartz virus, I was already well started with Japanese watches! 😂
It is equipped with the thermo-compensated caliber 4823, a good tractor!
I could not find an original bracelet, but I found one that suits it well.
It has a case that we recognize in the seiko or grand seiko style!
A sublime dial, which changes color, really crazy!
In short, I am under its spell!

King quartz 

I had been looking to taste the joys of the high beat seiko for a long time, on a vintage watch of course. I was able to buy it thanks to an ad on Facebook, it was the opportunity that made the thief.. The opportunity was too good, came like a divine message after 6 hours of waiting in line for nothing in front of the swatch store rue du cherche midi.. for only 100 euros more.. it brought me back down to earth and forgot the stroke of marketing genius of the famous collaboration. Far from being a simple consolation, this watch brought me a lot of pleasure, it is certainly the one I have worn the most for 6 months. Of course, it is not perfect and I bought it knowingly (slightly polished case and non-original crown) but it is mine and I have completely accepted these small defects which ultimately are not really any. I find it to be of a rare versatility and a complex simplicity. I also find that the gold medallion hidden on the bottom of the box -- besides providing an obvious cachet -- corresponds well to the whole Japanese philosophy: the primacy of personal delight over appearances.

King seiko vintage - le high beat nipon 

I was looking for an elegant watch, with an elegant diameter and an elegant dial. I was largely served by this King Seiko model SPB291J1 which was a new variant of this collection last summer (2022 if I remember correctly), at the time of my research. Beyond the story telling of the model ("The dial of this second new King Seiko creation features a sunburst finish whose soft purple hues capture the subtlety and beauty of Kameido's wisteria in its delicate gradient from the center to the edge."), I was truly captivated by the particular color of the dial evolving with the ambient light (one sometimes has the impression that the dial is backlit...), by the detailed work of the indexes, by these dauphine hands and by the general cleanliness with the beveled atmosphere of this watch. In my opinion, it expresses all its qualities on a metal bracelet, whose work I also find exceptional, and gives off a freshness that I never tire of. On a purely technical level, the power reserve is exceptional (weekend proof) and I confirm a previous comment: it is more precise than the manufacturer's display even if this is not an important criterion for me. The fact that it is a special edition only sold in Seiko stores was also not displeasing to me. In short, this watch will remain in my collection for a very long time...

Elegantly fresh!

I have had this watch for almost a year and I can tell you that I am still under its spell. The finishes are truly exemplary. The case is contained which gives it that vintage side that I love so much. The horns are perfectly beveled with an alternation of brushed and mirror polished. The indexes are splendid with a zaratsu finish which gives them a rainbow shine depending on the light. The dauphine hands give the impression of having been cut like a Japanese katana. The bracelet pays homage to the original model. It greatly reflects the light and is very comfortable if you take the time to have it adjusted properly (no fine adjustment with the butterfly clasp). In the end, it almost feels like you have a Grande Seiko on your wrist. What it lacks is certainly the caliber to achieve this level of finish. For my part, my caliber is very well adjusted. The daily drift is much more precise than that mentioned by Seiko. The red model remains the most interesting for me. I recommend it for people who already have a large watch collection. Its acquisition remains complicated. When I bought it, it was only available in official Seiko stores.

My first Seiko SPB287J1 is a King Seiko

Interested in the history of Seiko and the rivalry between King Seiko and Grand Seiko, I got this watch. 
It is a vintage from 1972, kanji date, 4Hz movement. This is the first vintage watch in my collection. I like its high frequency movement, its original knife-cut case, its sunray dial as well as the finishing of the hands and indexes.

Seiko King from 1972

New to my collection, this little King Seiko comes to play the role of a sporty chic character alongside my speed panda, my bb58 and my GS gmt. Playing the role of daily with its silver sunray dial inherited from the KSKs of yesteryear, it knows how to be discreet! by its 37mm case! But it remains no less charismatic by its features specific to the design of king seiko… taut lines, brushed case, mirror-polished chamfers, polished bezel, affixed logo! Its bracelet is crazy, it is worth the detour alone! It has a crazy charm… it has punctuated my daily life for a month now!

My Japanese sport chic! My little King…

I present to you a Seiko King Vanac from the 70s with a gold dial with a work that divides it into 4 zones and shades that vary depending on the light. It has gold applique indexes, gold baton hands, a gold second hand and the day date function in English and Japanese. The crown is signed by the brand with a polished faceted case of 37 mm for 42 mm from horn to horn and 12 mm thick. It has an automatic HI beat 5626 in-house movement and a faceted acrylic glass as well. And yes, we are almost on a jewelry watch that can please Madam or Sir. The model is rare and tends to see its rating increase. A beautiful vintage watch that my daughter likes to wear during important moments in life.
