Welcome in Chinese New Years with this ultra limited Grand Seiko SBGA433. This is a limited edition released specifically for the Chinese market with a total of 222 numbered pieces. Due to the fact that 4 is considered unlucky in Chinese culture, there were only 182 actual pieces manufactured. This watch features a 41mm stainless steel case with a stunning cloud textured dial in a deep purple color. The color is extremely dynamic with the light and can run the color spectrum from purple, to blue, to black depending on the lighting. This watch features the brilliant 9R65 movement. When talking about Grand Seiko, the Spring Drive movement immediately comes to mind. Conceived in 1977 and commercially released 22 years later in 1999, the Spring Drive is, among others, one of Seiko’s greatest accomplishments in the world of horology. The movement is often understood on a rudimentary level as a combination between a quartz and a mechanical movement. To delve deeper, the Spring Drive starts off as with many other mechanical watches - with the mainspring that drives a gear train. Unlike other mechanical watches, it ends with a regulator instead of an escapement, resulting in a smooth, continuous motion of the second hand. Spring Drive movements also have a generous power reserve of 72 hours. **Condition:** This watch is preowned in overall very good condition with some light signs of typical wear (nothing major to note) **Includes:** Offered complete with the presentation box (double boxed), additional leather strap with deployant clasp, hang tag, manuals, and warranty QR hang tag (China market uses tags not cards), and the limited edition certificate. **Price is $6250** \- This includes FedEx Express insured shipping within the USA. Payment accepted is bank wire, Zelle, and PayPal G&S +3.5% with references, any Crypto stable coins. **Pictures:** [https://imgur.com/a/B5xbAxf](https://imgur.com/a/B5xbAxf) **Timestamp:** [https://imgur.com/a/2vEMjZ6](https://imgur.com/a/2vEMjZ6) **Feedback/References:** [Here](https://www.reddit.com/r/WatchExchangeFeedback/search?q=rebes88&restrict_sr=1) **You are welcome to call/text me at 475 323 8366 or reach out on Instagram @** [rebestime](https://www.instagram.com/rebestime/)

	Established:	1881

	Country of Origin:	Japan

The company was founded in 1881, when Kintarō Hattori opened a watch and jewelry shop called "K. Hattori" (服部時計店 Hattori Tokeiten?) in the Ginza area of Tokyo, Japan. Eleven years later, in 1892, he began to produce clocks under the name Seikosha (精工舎 Seikōsha?), meaning roughly "House of Exquisite Workmanship". According to Seiko's official company history, titled "A Journey In Time: The Remarkable Story of Seiko" (2003), Seiko is a Japanese word meaning "exquisite" or "success" ("exquisite" is usually written 精巧 from Chinese jīngqiǎo, while the meaning "success" is usually written 成功 from Chinese chénggōng).

Seiko is perhaps best known for its wristwatches, all of which were at one time produced entirely in-house. This includes not only major items such as microgears, motors, hands, crystal oscillators, batteries, sensors, LCDs but also minor items such as the oils used in lubricating the watches and the luminous compounds used on the hands and the dials.
