Fans of Grand Seiko know that their watches tend to be inspired by the natural world as well as cultural references, and this is the starting point for the most dynamic feature of the Toge, its green dial with the now familiar Mt. Iwate pattern. The color of the dial is Grand Seiko?s take on British racing green, and of course the small ridges on the dial are meant to evoke the slopes of Mt. Iwate, visible from Grand Seiko manufacture where the design was conceived. ?Toge? is a Japanese term that refers to a mountain pass, and the watch is meant to make you think of a drive through the mountains, perhaps in a classic British sports car.Â
For those that haven’t experienced the Mt. Iwate dial, it’s really something special. As you can get a sense of in the photos here...
