Eichi II Lapis Lazuli Dial model commemorating the 140th anniversary of Seiko
Since launching in 1974, Credor has played a pioneering role in creating a succession of exceptional high-end luxury watches in Japan.
A special limited edition version of the world-renowned Eichi II, featuring a stunning lapis lazuli proclein dial, was released in 2021 to commemorate the 140th anniversary of Seiko.
The ultimate expression of craftsmanship from dedicated watchmakers
The Eichi II was created by the artisan team of high-end watchmakers at the Micro Artist Studio*.
The stunning lapis lazuli proclein dial on this special Eichi II model is the quintessential expression of the proud 140-year history of Seiko
The high-temperature fired surface enamel glaze generates surface tension in the molten crystal, producing a natural curvature that gives the proclein dial a wonderfully handmade feel.
The Micro Artist Studio team tried more than 20 different combinations of glaze blends and repeated firings before arriving at the required sense of azure depth from the thin enamel glaze.
The blue hue varies in accordance with light intensity in an endlessly fascinating color display.
The unadorned hour marks and Credor logo are all hand-drawn and have their own distinctive depth and visibility.
Handmade movement
Visible through the see-through back are the movement bridge, rubies and delicately chamfered screw holes, all hand-polished with smooth curves and a mirror finish that shines brilliantly from any angle.
The innovative Torque Return System for an extended power reserve
When the mainspring has been fully wound and the torque output is at its highest, approximately 30% of the available power is not needed to maintain the precision of the watch and is in effect wasted in a normal movement. The Torque Return System uses this energy to rewind the mainspring, increasing the power reserve. In Caliber 7R14, this system is active for 35 hours after the mainspring has been fully wound.
By using the available energy more effectively, the Torque Return System increases the power reserve of the Caliber 7R14 to around 60 hours. This represents a 25% improvement over the manual-winding Spring Drive Caliber 7R88, which delivers 48 hours of power reserve.
