The Grand Seiko SLGC006 is an automatic chronograph watch, with a 43.2mm gold case, 15.4mm thick, powered by the 9SC5 movement and a 72-hour power reserve. Water resistance is rated to 100m, under a sapphire crystal. Manufacturer MSRP is $22,600.
Owners widely praise the Grand Seiko SLGC006's stunning copper Mount Iwate dial and its high-frequency Caliber 9SC5 movement, which operates at 36,000vph and achieves accuracy between -3/+5 seconds per day with a 72-hour power reserve. Reviewers note the watch's large 43.2mm size, though some find the Evolution 9 case design improves wearability. Criticisms include the $22,600 price point, the 4:30 date window placement, and the lack of bracelet micro-adjustment. Opinions on the dial are split, with some finding it beautiful and others comparing it to rust or the Australian outback. Some question the extent of the gold accents for a "two-tone" designation. Overall, owners and reviewers acknowledge the Grand Seiko SLGC006's striking aesthetics and advanced movement, but debate its value proposition and certain design choices.
