It's not just the 25th anniversary of Spring Drive, it's also the 55th anniversary of the Seiko Quartz Astron, the 55th anniversary of the Grand Seiko VFA's ("Very Fine Adjusted"), and the 55th anniversary of the Seiko Astronomical Observatory Chronometer.
There will be new mechanical Grand Seiko VFA's, and Grand Seiko Spring Drive UFA's ("Ultra Fine Accuracy").
It's going to be one heck of a year, and definitely worth holding out for.
