Part of Seiko's Presage Japanese Garden collection, the HCB008J1 draws inspiration from the raked gravel patterns of a traditional Japanese Zen garden. The textured black dial carries this motif through to an open-heart aperture, revealing the escapement of Seiko's in-house Calibre 4R71 automatic movement beneath, with warm gold-tone indices and hands sitting against the dial for a refined contrast.
Housed in a 41.8mm stainless steel case, the watch is fitted with a dual-curved sapphire crystal for scratch resistance and clarity, paired with a black calfskin leather strap. A see-through screw-down caseback offers a further view of the movement's finishing.
The Calibre 4R71 automatic movement features 24 jewels and a 41-hour power reserve, with hacking seconds for precise time setting and manual winding capability, so the watch can be set going by hand if it's been sitting still. This combination of traditional Japanese design and mechanical craftsmanship makes the Seiko Presage HCB008J1 a striking addition for anyone drawn to open-heart automatic watches.
