The Asian Snowflake

Seiko SBGA211G

 

This dial is really cool when you come close to it.

The Grand Seiko Snowflake is a unique watch.

The blue secondhand made a great contrast to the dial.

The titanium case and bracelet and the size of 41mm diameter and 12,5 mm thick feels well balanced in the hand.

The oversized screwdown crown is a little too high in my opinion but easy to handle.

The lugs have a brushed top and the bevels and sides are polished.

The logo get the feeling is flows over the dial.

The 72 hours power reserve meter.

The logo at the folding clasp.

The 9R65 movement don't shows so much through the glassback but the finsh of what you see is awesome.

10 bar WR

There is a logo at the crystal too.

Those are so tiny.

It's a very elegant watch.

And of course a wrist shot.
