RDSChicago and I had a Japanese lunch today ( he brought a group of 7 Seiko’s , I only brought the Seiko Mod…I’m a loser! )









I fell in love with this Giugiaro design Seiko, it even matches my Katsu!

Thanks for bringing all those fun Seiko’s Rob!

Unfortunately, the lightning was less than ideal, but his black dial Pressage with gold Roman , the white dial GS reissue and his GS with blue dial ( hard to tell in that light ) were a few of my favorites. Seikomadness on display! Glad you liked my silly Green dial Mod! Always good hearing from you!

Did you remember to eat something or were you too busy with the watches 😀 All the best, Jon

Love the SBGW253 and the katsu soba ! : ) The gray+orange colorway on Giugiaro design Seiko catches my eye, too. Wish I could join you guys sometime.

Seiko’s, both the Grand and the regular lines, especially the vintage references from the 60’s and 70’s, have become some of my favorites! So interesting and reasonably priced. And of course the company of Larry and the food were superb! Between the ambiance, authentic Japanese vibe of the restaurant and all the Seiko’s present, we felt as close being in Japan as one could feel in Denver, Colorado.
