A Grand Seiko timepiece inspired by Nishikigoi, or Japanese iridescent carp, swimming in traditional pond gardens
Japanese gardens are a prime example of the country’s innate aesthetic; incorporating nature’s beauty into daily life by bringing the ever-changing seasons close to hand.
The Nishikigoi, or Japanese iridescent carp fish, inspires the latest Grand Seiko European limited-edition timepiece - a key natural feature in the requisite pond of a unique Chisen Teien or Japanese pond garden style.
The calming practice of viewing ornamental carp in the Chisen Teien began in the 9th century as an aristocratic pastime in Japan, and their attractive presence have been welcomed ever since. Today, iridescent carp are highly popular worldwide, being prized as “swimming jewels.”
The color scheme of the SBGW321 represents a Nishikigoi, combining a black strap, vivid red dial in a silver-colored stainless steel case with gold-toned accents of the logo and second hand. The radial spiral dial pattern, extending outwards from the center, evokes the shimmering scales of a carp reflected by sunlight on the pond.
