Evolution 9 - a Hi-Beat 36000 timepiece inspired by "shirakaba," or white birch Surrounding the new Grand Seiko Studio Shizukuishi in northern Japan are beautiful white birch tree forests. Noted for its distinct white coloration and texture, the bark of these trees inspires the latest in Grand Seiko's Evolution 9 Collection, SLGH005.
Evolution 9 is the name of Grand Seiko's new design language first introduced with reference SLGH002 in 2020. With its complex faceted case; large hands and prominent markers; Zaratsu-polished, distortion-free finish; and highly ergonomic proportions, Evolution 9 will be an important part of Grand Seiko's Heritage Collection for years to come.
Boasting a distinct vertical texture, the white dial captures the serene mood of the white birch tree forest. Contrasting against the dial texture are highly legible markers and hands, which include a striking heat-blued second hand.
First presented in 2020, caliber 9SA5 was developed from the ground up after 9 years of development, the endeavor led by movement designer Hisashi Fujieda. 9SA5 is a 10-beat movement boasting 80 hours of power reserve and a precision rate of +5 to -3 seconds a day. It incorporates three important developments: Grand Seiko's new Dual Impulse Escapement, free-spring balance, and horizontal gear train. Deploying all the skills and experience gained over the past six decades, Grand Seiko achieved in creating what is beyond a doubt the finest mechanical caliber in its repertoire.

Give your watch a quick check on a regular basis, wiping down the face and bracelet with a soft cloth, checking the leather on a strap, and making sure that the strap or bracelet is firmly attached to the watch face. Also, while many watches are water resistant, few are truly waterproof, so if you find that moisture or dust has penetrated the case of your watch, bring it into your local Ben Bridge store where we can have one of our watchmakers clean it out for you.

Our best advice on watch maintenance is to never attempt do-it-yourself repairs, no matter how handy you are or how good the instructions are on Youtube. Watches are super complex little machines and only an expert watchmaker should be trusted to get a watch back into working condition. Attempts by an untrained repair person may seriously damage the watch and can even invalidate factory warranties.

In general, having your watch checked regularly by your Personal Jeweler or watchmaker and serviced according to the manufacturer's guidelines should keep it in excellent shape.
