Grand Seiko SLGH003 9SA5 Watch Movement
This watch comes with the amazing caliber 9SA5. This inner movement relies on the use of a new type of double impulse escapement assembly. This new assembly allows for better efficiency and durability than traditional lever escapement.
In general, the pallet fork sends the necessary power to the balance wheel. This traditional method requires lubrication. However, the caliber 9SA5 receives one impulse directly to the balance wheel. This is possible with the help of the shuriken star wheel. Therefore, Grand Seiko has taken out the middleman for energy exchange to offer stability and more accuracy.
This dual escapement method offers higher energy conservation and less lubrication. The 9SA5 caliber offers a brilliant power reserve of 80-hours. Moreover, it can beat at 5Hz. This dual escapement technology also offers an accuracy of between +5 seconds per day and -3 seconds per day.
