a 'Grand' collection of Seiko's.

wow, Graham, this is a collection as I like them
Impressive, my friend, even if I' m not a Seiko Guy, I have to admit that I admire your efforts to build such a collection. And really, I appreciated the credits you gave to all our great Purist Friends, here and there, who lead us very often on the right...
