Grand seiko 8J56-8020

Grand Seiko 8J56-8020 | Caliber 8J56 Quartz | 2000 | Box Included (No Papers)

Available here is a sharp and minimalist example of the Grand Seiko 8J56-8020, powered by the high-precision Quartz Caliber 8J56. With serial number SR020046, this piece dates to February 2000, and represents a period when Grand Seiko was building some of the finest quartz wristwatches in the world—long before the Western market caught up.

The stainless steel case measures a versatile ~36mm (excluding crown), with Grand Seiko’s signature finishing: clean brushed planes, crisp lines, and polished bevels—all still intact and unpolished. The silver sunburst dial is quintessential GS: perfectly balanced, with razor-sharp dauphine hands, applied indices, and no date window to clutter the symmetry. The applied Grand Seiko logo at 12 o'clock and understated text at 6 o'clock are crisp and correct.

Inside ticks the Seiko Caliber 8J56, accurate to ±10 seconds per year, featuring a hacking seconds hand, low battery indicator, and exceptionally smooth hand alignment. This is one of Seiko's most respected high-accuracy quartz movements—engineered for long-term precision and durability.

The bracelet is original, solid stainless steel with signed clasp, full links, and excellent fit with the case. The screw-down caseback features the classic Grand Seiko lion medallion, showing only minimal wear.

Included is the original Grand Seiko box (inner + outer). Papers are not included.
