With a 40mm polished and brushed stainless steel case that sits elegantly on the wrist with sweeping tapered lugs, its refined polished flanks lead to a lug-to-lug length of 47.5mm and a case thickness of 14mm. On the right side is a substantial signed crown with deep knurling for easy adjustments. A polished bezel holds a dual-curved sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating above a breathtakingly deep-blue Shippo enamel dial. Shippo is a unique type of enamel developed in Japan during the 17th century. Unlike porcelain enamel, Shippo is characterised by its transparency and by the polishing method used after firing. The Presage Shippo enamel dial is crafted by Ando Cloisonne, a specialised manufacturer in Nagoya with over a century of experience. Craftsman Wataru Totani handpaints the glaze onto the dial surface. The translucent enamel reveals a striking wave pattern beneath, evoking the ripples of the ocean, surrounded by crisp white Roman numeral hour markers. At 6 o’clock, a sub-dial displays the date, while a power reserve indicator arcs gracefully from 9 to 10 o'clock. Elegant white Feuille hands are complemented by a finely tapered, sweeping second hand. At noon, the Seiko motif completes this highly artistic timepiece. On the reverse is a screw-down exhibition case back that showcases the automatic Seiko Cal. 6R27, 29 jewels, beating at a frequency of 28,800 beats per hour. This premium movement features both hacking and hand winding for your convenience. It comes fitted on a high-quality 20mm leather strap secured by a push-button deployant clasp, and the watch comes with its Seiko presentation box and paperwork.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb id=\"docs-internal-guid-cb276d81-7fff-3b34-2752-92f717d696f5\"\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seiko","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57201433641340,"sku":"SARW039 (6R27-00M0)","price":1350.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/0771\/3366\/files\/1_98df0103-41ae-4f56-a824-a99dd8ced5ac.jpg?v=1784731347","url":"https:\/\/kibblewatches.co.uk\/products\/2019-seiko-presage-shippo-enamel-blue-limited-sarw039-40mm","provider":"KibbleWatches","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
