This Wintry Watch's Iced-Over Dial Gives Grand Seiko a Run for Its Money
Sartory Billard has launched the limited edition SB04-E Winter Edition 2026, a winter-themed watch designed to evoke the essence of a snowy landscape. The watch features a unique dial that incorporates a three-dimensional snowflake pattern, created through a combination of traditional and modern techniques. The dial transitions from ice blue at the edges to snow white at the center, enhanced by a clear lacquer that mimics the appearance of a frozen lake. It maintains the familiar 39.5mm stainless steel case and is powered by a La Joux-Perret automatic movement, boasting a water resistance of 100 meters. Limited to just 26 pieces, the SB04-E Winter Edition is available for €3,100 on a white rubber strap or €3,500 on a matching steel bracelet. Its design not only captures the beauty of winter but also provides practical features such as a water level indicator and Super-LumiNova markings for visibility in low light. Potential buyers are encouraged to act quickly due to the limited availability of this rare timepiece.
