In the world of Grand Seiko, every advancement is rooted with purpose. In 2023, the Caliber 9SC5 was introduced, Grand Seiko’s first mechanical chronograph movement,  conceptualised from years of innovation and technical mastery at the Shizukuishi Studio. Beating at 10 times per second and a full 72 hours of power reserve when fully wound, this movement combines high-performance precision with refined Japanese engineering.
 
The Tokyo Lion Tentagraph, SLGC009 is a boutique exclusive timepiece, available from 1 August 2025 at the Grand Seiko Boutique Singapore Marina Bay Sands. Encased in high-intensity titanium and framed by a ceramic bezel, this bold sports chronograph brings the movement to life through form and function. The textured dial, inspired by a lion’s mane gives a nod to the strength and ambition that the Grand Seiko lion symbolizes, to create the most precise, durable and beautiful watch possible with its supreme legibility, a newly developed rubber strap, a sculpted case crafted from high-intensity titanium and pusher with and a commanding presence that completes the experience.
 
The Tokyo Lion Tentagraph, SLGC009 is not just the latest addition to the Sport Collection, it is a powerful reminder of what makes Grand Seiko unique. Purposeful design. Quiet strength. And now, a chronograph movement that keeps the pace for life’s adventures.
