the Japanese wisdom.....Credor Eichi II

had a chance to see this gorgeous timepiece in the Grand Seiko Paris boutique...


the recently launched Blue porcelain dial version on Pt case...the blue is very dynamic with light ranging from anything from an ink blue to black...

but the white dial is imho the best expression....the essence of Eichi !


looking at the perfect straight lines of the index...it is hard to believe it is hand painted by artisans - seriously impressive, one have to see it in metal pics don't do justice to this timepiece.



Spring drive movement gives an awesome sweep by the seconds hand on the dial - extremely smooth flow that goes well with the Zen image of the dial.

I also love the fact the PR is on the movement side. 



in deed a timepiece that I admire a lot & hopefully one day I would be able to enjoy it in my collection.

Big Thanks to Cyril from the Paris boutique for sharing these gorgeous timepieces. 


Best,

I imagine just like Journe's Chronometre Blue no matter how beautiful the pictures, and these are beautiful, the watch needs to been seen in person. My preference is also for the white dial. I'm guessing the blue/black has an amazing depth though. I have ... 

the dial in blue Eichi is similar but CB has its one charm with the Tantalum case...

it can co-exist in a collection but Eichi white dial is somehow enchantingly different !

can't agree more...
