Heritage "Skyflake"

Same 33mm steel case and 100m rating as the Snowflake reference in my catalogue, but the Skyflake dial swaps the white snow texture for a blue one, and the color shift changes the whole read of the watch — cooler, slightly more graphic, still built around the same textured-dial idea Grand Seiko does better than almost anyone. No date window here either, which keeps the dial clean. At this size it's clearly built for smaller wrists, and on my proportions axis it holds up well against pieces that cost considerably more for a comparable level of dial finishing.
