and very well done! Nice catch and excellent choice for your GS. The dial, case and movement looks very nice, esp the very unique dial. I am also constantly getting poisoned by GS, esp after this Seiko forum is set up here! Arghhhhh... Enjoy your GS and may it always time happy moments for you. cheers robin
Just like the drugs that cure us. But you're right that these forums can be very bad when we're on a "watch diet". :-) I'm sure we will see yours very soon Robin. There is always one for every one and the temptations will come much harder once you're snagged with the thought. Richard
I believe there will be more coming!
Thanks for the encouragement. With this on my wrist, I now fully understand the allure of GS.
Congratulations to you! I am very likely to get a Grand Seiko one day; just wait for the "irresistible" one to come up.
Sooner than later, especially after you've handled and put on one in the metal. Thanks for the note, and yes, I can't even find much information of this on the web, though there are some lighter posts here and there. Richard
