This 365,000 Euro Luxury Watch Will Make You Dance (and Its Design Will Hypnotize You!)

Grand Seiko strikes hard with its new exceptional watch creation. Combining technical prowess and avant-garde aesthetics, this watch with its captivating rhythm promises to revolutionize the world of fine watchmaking.

A mechanical masterpiece with a wild rhythm

The Grand Seiko Kodo Constant-Force Tourbillon โ€œDaybreakโ€ is the second iteration of an already legendary model. This complex mechanical watch is distinguished by its unique movement combining:

โ€“ A tourbillon whose inner cage rotates at 8 beats per secondโ€“ A constant force mechanism rotating at 1 beat per second

This combination generates a steady, captivating rhythm, reminiscent of the groove of a jazz drummer. The dial also bears the words “sixteenth note feel”, in reference to a rhythmic subdivision popular with funk musicians.

A design inspired by dawn

Unlike its predecessor, the โ€œDaybreakโ€ adopts a lighter aesthetic, inspired by the first light of day:

โ€“ Silver movement componentsโ€“ Pale blue sapphires replacing the traditional rubiesโ€“ White calfskin strap treated using an ancestral samurai technique

The 43.8 mm case combines: โ€“ An internal body in 950 platinum โ€“ An external structure in โ€œBrilliant Hard Titaniumโ€, an alloy twice as hard as steel

The finishes alternate between Zaratsu mirror polishing and a subtle satin brushing.

A technical and chronometric feat

The hand-wound 9ST1 caliber offers:โ€“ 72 hours of power reserveโ€“ 50 hours of constant forceโ€“ Accuracy of +5/-3 seconds per day

Each movement undergoes 48 hours of testing in various positions and temperatures before being validated.

An exclusive for discerning collectors

Limited to 20 pieces, the Kodo Constant-Force Tourbillon โ€œDaybreakโ€ is priced at 365,000 euros. Deliveries will begin next December.

This exceptional creation will seduce lovers of fine watchmaking with:โ€“ Its bold and balanced designโ€“ Its fascinating technical constructionโ€“ Its captivating rhythm, perceptible in the silence

The Grand Seiko Kodo Constant-Force Tourbillon โ€œDaybreakโ€ proves that Japanese watchmaking has nothing to envy its Swiss competitors. Combining technical innovation, avant-garde aesthetics and chronometric performance, it is a must-have piece for the most demanding collectors. Its unique rhythm also makes it an object of fascination for music lovers, thus transcending the boundaries between watchmaking and music.
