Have to agree. So many great Grand Seiko's yet that one is ICONIC!
I also own one and I'm honored that I do as I don't think more than a handful made it to the US. Steve G has a great essay on his website about the SBGW003. I'll take it out of the box and think it's just a little small. But then I'll wear it and a huge smile breaks out on my face. Just goes to show size does always matter.
Best,
Larry
Post your Grand Seikos...here's mine.
Thanks in advance guys! p.s. Sorry, the pic is non-professional but it's the spirit that counts...
I wish I had one to post...
...but I have to settle for living vicariously through photos of yours, which I like very much BTW! Thanks for sharing. My favorite model is the cream dial GS with blued hands. Daos
OK, here goes.
a couple of vintage pieces i still own first. a 5722 handwind low beat(18000) from 1965 and a 4522 handwind hi beat(36000) from 1969 now for a couple that have passed through my hands to others. a 5645 hi beat auto from 1972 that is now on the wrist of an...
Looking good Graham! Thanks for posting them!
Always a joy looking at beautiful watches.
Just lovely, Graham!
Thanks for sharing! I like all of them. The high beat watches are particularly interesting. Between you and Ginger, I've seen some cool high beats. I wonder what the new Favre-Leuba high beats will be like... Cheers, Daos
always happy to share with...
always happy to share with you Daos, you know that. the only thing i can guarantee with the favre leuba's is that they will beat fast :) what they'll look like is anyones guess. if they are too classic no one will buy them unless they are an accurate re e...
this one is a LE 300 pcs GS launched back in 1993 I believe...
I have hunted this SBGW003 for almost a year before I found it in the famous Auction site in Japan. The best looking GS there is IMHO. If you manage to find or being offered one in future, pls do not hesitate. Hope this helps. Enjoy the pics...

Ugh! I really wish I had one!!!
Thanks for posting pictures of yours. The blued hands are spectacular -- Seiko gets such an electric hue and even tone on those hands! Be still my beating heart! Cheers, Daos
Thanks Daos! This is a discontinued model SBGR019
...I saw the exact model 11 years ago when I was on my honeymoon in Japan (1998) and never thought I'd buy one 10 years later! Very sporty looking, almost futuristic and love the bracelet.
Here is my one and only Grand Seiko.............
.......Spring Drive GMT. Cheers, SC...
Better late than never
Nice one you have. It's not common now that it's been discontinued. Here's mine: - SJX...
Hi JiaXian...remember when I asked you last year r/e GS?
This is the one, I was thinking about this one & the one like yours but with silver dial/bracelet...after some 'soul searching' I went with this one (SBGR019) and very happy with it. Not even 1 year old, wore it recently during my trip to Japan and visite...
Yes I do remember
that is why I knew I had to reply to your post. Owning one GS makes a second one extremely tempting doesn't it? - SJX
