As a gamer with a deep appreciation for both digital and analog timepieces, I must say that Seiko’s new Presage “Japanese Zen Garden” series has caught my eye (and not just because of the intricate dial designs). Having spent countless hours immersed in virtual worlds, I find it refreshing to see a real-world object that captures the essence of harmony and mindfulness.
As a gamer, I’d put it like this: “Just added two fresh pieces to my collection, the latest additions from Seiko’s ‘Japanese Zen Garden’ series. These timepieces are more than just watches; they embody the tranquil spirit of traditional Japanese Karesansui gardens. Known for their balance and contemplative nature, Karesansui is a unique type of Japanese garden design, featuring strategically placed rocks, mossy corners, sculpted trees, and intricate patterns in sand or gravel that mimic flowing water.
Generally located in Zen Buddhist temples, Karesansui gardens are created to capture the spirit of nature and enhance meditation, rather than mimicking its physical form. The “Japanese Zen Garden” collection from Presage embodies this tranquil inspiration on its face, blending classic beauty with Seiko’s well-known mechanical accuracy.
The design comes in two distinct color schemes: one with a Fern Green dial that replicates the intricate textures of raked sand patterns, while another is Gold-Toned Sand, emulating the shimmering golden designs often seen in Japanese temple gardens. Both dials are shielded by double-curved sapphire crystal glass and exhibit an open-heart display at 9 o’clock, highlighting Seiko’s self-winding mechanical movement within.
These watches boast gracefully sculpted hands and distinctive Karesansui designs, offering a tranquil yet captivating aesthetic. The intricate features on the dial give off an impression of motion infused with hues from nature, mirroring the heart of Japanese gardens. You can pre-order these two new Presage “Japanese Zen Garden” watches, priced between £480 – £520 GBP (approximately $609 – $660 USD), through the Seiko Boutique website.
