The 18k rose gold case measures 38.5mm in diameter, features a dual-curve sapphire crystal, as well as a sapphire crystal on the exhibition case back. The case carries a total of 53 diamonds set by hand by the highly skilled craftsmen and women of the Shinshu Watch Studio. They are arranged so that they gradually decrease in size from the center of the case down to the lug ends, resulting in a beautiful, flowing effect. The surfaces of the diamonds are also perfectly aligned to create a uniform sparkle, one that evokes the essence of Shizuri-yuki.
SBGY008 runs on the manual-winding caliber 9R31. The movement’s Dual Spring Barrel achieves a greater power reserve by housing two mainsprings in one barrel, which keeps the movement compact. The movement has an extended power reserve of 72 hours without any loss of torque. Exposed jewels, tempered screws, and some of the gear train are visible through the hairline-finished bridge, highlighting the exceptional finishing.
