The Seiko Presage SPB085 is a fine example of a mechanical watch that takes its inspiration from Japan’s everlasting fascination with the moon. Following on from the success of the recent release of a deep blue enamel dial that evoked the night sky, this new limited edition uses one of the most elaborate lacquer techniques of all, Byakudan-Nuri, as well as traditional Urushi, to portray the rich tones of the sky and moon just before dawn.

First, the dials on SPB085 are made with the traditional Urushi technique in which jet-black lacquer is painted by hand onto the metal base of the dial, dried, and then polished. These processes are repeated several times until the craftsman has achieved the exact depth of black that he desires.

Byakudan-nuri is a technique that has been used for centuries to decorate Urushi lacquer and, because of the complexity of the craftsmanship involved, was reserved exclusively for use in places and on objects of high status, including temples, shrines, and on the armor of Shogun warlords. Using a new layer of Urushi as the binding agent, the sub-dials are then sprinkled with a layer of very fine metallic powder. The whole dial is then repeatedly painted with a red-tinged semi-transparent Urushi lacquer and then each new layer is dried and polished as many times as the craftsman deems necessary. 

After the above the craftsmen need to add the moon, using the Maki-e technique, the crescent-shaped tip of the second hand is coated with gold powder, giving it a special texture that resembles the surface of the moon. The power reserve indicator evokes the brilliance of the crescent moon illuminated by the sun. The SPB085 is truly a piece of art on wrists!
