Grand Seiko Dauphine Hands - Brushed Top Silver - Luminous

Swiss Lume

The Dress-Watch Handset. Brushed Facets. Lumed for the Dark.

A classically-styled handset with a muted finish and a night-time glow. The Grand Seiko Dauphine Hands in Brushed Top Silver — Luminous pair a brushed top with mirror-polished edges and a capped second hand, filled with Swiss BGW9 Grade A lume.

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 keeps glare low for a vintage feel, with a blue night-time glow that matches BGW9-lumed 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, lumed.
The top face is finely brushed and the bevelled edges mirror-polished, then filled with 100% Swiss Super-LumiNova® BGW9 Grade A — a muted look by day and a long-lasting blue glow at night. 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

Questions, Answered

Everything worth knowing before you build.

Can I use these on a GMT (NH34) build?

The hour, minute and second hands fit the NH34. A GMT build also needs a separate GMT hand, which is not included in this set.

What are the pinion sizes?

Hour 1.50mm, minute 0.88mm, second 0.198mm. The pinion is the hole at the base of each hand that presses onto the movement — these dimensions match the standard Seiko pinion pattern shared across the calibers in the fit list.

Will these hands fit my movement?

Check the Fit Movements list in the Specs tab against your caliber. The handset fits a wide range of Seiko movements — including 7S, 4R, 6R, NE and NH families — because they share a common pinion pattern. If your caliber is on the list, these hands fit.

Do the hands come with lume?

Yes — these hands are filled with 100% Swiss Super-LumiNova® BGW9 Grade A, for a long-lasting blue glow at night, with a clean metal finish for daytime wear.
