U.F.A. stands for Ultra Fine Accuracy: plus or minus twenty seconds a year, from a mechanical-hybrid movement the size of a coin. The Lake Suwa blue dial ripples like the water the studio overlooks. This is the current frontier of Spring Drive.

Grand Seiko's U.F.A., reference SLGB015, 37mm in high-intensity titanium, Spring Drive calibre 9RB2.

The collection

Evolution 9

The newer case language, and where most recent mechanical calibres appear first

Evolution 9 is Grand Seiko's modern design language, introduced in 2020 on the 60th anniversary hi-beat SLGH002 and established as a catalogue line in 2021 with the White Birch SLGH005. It reworks the 1967 house grammar with wider, shorter lugs, a lower centre of gravity and broader hands and markers for legibility. It is also the first home for most of the recent mechanical calibres, the hi-beat 9SA5, the 9SC5 chronograph and the hand wound 9SA4.

Sizes in the family

roughly 37mm to 44mm by model, divers and chronograph largest

Who it suits

For a buyer who wants the newer case language rather than the classic 44GS styling, with a current generation movement inside.
