Grand Seiko's independence as a brand in its own right (from 2017, after decades of existing primarily within the Seiko corporate structure) coincided with a period of rapidly growing international awareness, and Hodinkee's selection of the SBGM239 as a 500-piece US-exclusive collaboration timed precisely with that inflection point. The result is a watch that carries both the specific visual language of the Hodinkee collaboration and the technical specification of Grand Seiko's most accomplished sport GMT movement in a wearable 39.5mm case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe twilight blue dial is the central design element of the Hodinkee edition — a colour described by Grand Seiko as capturing the transition from day to night, deeply saturated and slightly textured in a way that shifts under different light conditions. Where standard SBGM GMT references carry coloured GMT hands to reference their dial palette, the SBGM239 uses Hodinkee's signature grey for all GMT-function elements: the 24-hour scale on the outer flange and the GMT hand both appear in grey rather than the warm accent colours of the production references. The Hodinkee wordmark appears engraved on the stainless steel exhibition caseback. \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eLimited to 500 pieces and nearly immediately sold out.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWHAT’S INSIDE:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGrand Seiko Calibre 9S66 — 35-jewel automatic GMT movement, 28,800 vph, 72-hour power reserve, hacking seconds.
