The Dress-Watch Handset. Brushed Top, Polished Edges.
A classically-styled handset with a two-texture finish. The Grand Seiko Dauphine Hands in Brushed Top Silver pair a brushed top face with mirror-polished bevelled edges — faceted dauphine hour and minute hands and a capped second hand, for a softer read than a full polish.
A handset is a small part, but it sets the character of the whole watch. The dauphine shape reads as classic, formal horology — the considered choice for a heritage dress build, not generic stick hands.
Built to pair across the catalogue.
The brushed top tones down glare for a muted, vintage feel that suits matte and grained silver-tone dials. As a standard NH-compatible handset, it fits any build in our dial collection — choose the dauphine for a dress watch, not a tool watch.
Brushed top, polished edges.
The top face is finely brushed while the bevelled edges are mirror-polished — a two-texture finish that catches light only at the edges, for a quieter, more vintage character than a full polish. A considered finish is what makes a dial come alive.
Capped second hand.
A silver cap sits over the centre pinion, concealing it for a seamless, uninterrupted finish — the detail that separates a considered dress build from an assembled one.
Heads up — hands are one part of the build

Everything worth knowing before you build.
Customers praised these watch hands as "premium" with "immaculate" finishing. The brushed dauphine design features polished borders that create stunning reflections. Shoppers highlighted the "beautifully finished" quality and capped second hand detail. One noted the second hand is "a little bit short," but overall customers report they're easy to install and create a clean, elegant look.
Hands and case are a perfect match
The quality of the hands is very excellent and cool. The delivery also came quickly. I highly recommend it.
Beautifully finished set of hands. The perfect accompaniment to the SNKL23 dial which I also purchased from Lucius Atelier.
Very nice hands 👌
Perfect finish, highly recommend them!
Very unique brushed dauphine hands made a very sharp but not too dressy improvement to my watch. Top quality product. I like how there is no hole on the second hand.
The polishing and finishing on these hands are awesome! In my mod, you can see reflections of the Great Wave off Kanagawa Dial in the Second Hand, reflected on the hour hand! I'm astonished by the level of detail!
The finishing in these hands is immaculate. Too often do you get aftermarket hands with either all brushed or all polished finish, and these are beautiful.
The hands are great and match perfectly with my watch. I have now a little baby GS. The second hand is a little bit short.
Hey Truong!
Thank you for the feedback! Our second hands is actually long, not short. The second hands is 13mm - the maximum length you can fit into a Seiko 5 and dive watches before it scraps the watch case and stop the movement. Only 0.25mm away from damaging the watch case and movement.
Our hands are all designed for Seiko 5 and dive watches with standard dial size of 28.5mm and opening of 26.5mm diameter (13.25m radius). In other words, 13mm is the limit. Our hands are not designed for premium models such as brightz, sarb and presage, which usually have dial size over 30mm.
Hope you find this information useful. Nevertheless, thank you for the feedback. =)
Cheers,
Adriel
These hands are premium. This is the only place I will get my hands from because they are the best.
Perfect watch hands, premium finish.
The best GS hands config available around the web. The capped second hand is the little thing that makes it even better !
It's a very beautiful hands.
These hands came perfectly packaged in a plastic centrifuge tube. I didn't expect that the borders of each hand would be so nicely polished but they look fantastic.
The hour and minute hands were very easy to seat. The second hand put up a bit of a fight but that's to be expected :)
Happy with the purchase
Love these, they give the watch a very clean look and aren’t too showy.
Hi,
would it be possible to order a custom set of these hands that fit a miyota 9015? So, 1.52 mm, 1,00 mm, 0.17mm for the holes?
Best regards,
Simon
Hello Simon!
Thanks for expressing interest in our mod parts!
Hands will not fit a miyota. Our hands are designed for SEIKO NH movements, and its specs are hugely different to other movement brands.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any more questions.
Cheers,
Adriel
Hi, will it fit 4R36 movement? There is no 4R36 in the description, but NH36. As far as I know both movements are the same. Am I right?
Hello Poon!
Thanks for expressing interest in our mod parts.
Yes. it fits. As long as movements come from Seiko, it will fit. It is universal for all Seiko movements.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any more questions.
Cheers,
Adriel
Will this set of hands fit the Seagull automatic movements that are usually fitted to 36mm oyster style cases?
Hello Nicholas!

>> Will this set of hands fit the Seagull automatic movements that are usually fitted to 36mm oyster style cases?
No idea. You probably need to go find out seagull movement technical drawings and compare it with nh movement technical drawings (https://www.timemodule.com/).
Hope this helps. Let me know if you have anymore questions.
Cheers,
