Description
The boys are back in the Biergarten watching our new mural come to life, and going deep on the complexity and technology powering the Grand Seiko Spring Drive movement. Once again, we're joined by our good pal Joe Kirk, Grand Seiko's Brand Curator who's got plenty of amazing insider insight on just what makes these movements so revolutionary.
