Hello everyone,
I have a NEW, NEVER WORN BNIB Snowflake. Selling for only £4,100 obo. Purchased from a Grand Seiko authorised dealer on the 24th October 2019. The transferable factory warranty is good until October 2022. It comes complete with outer sleeve, GS box, watch cushion, rice paper, user manual, factory warranty documents signed/ stamped by the official Grand Seiko AD and the original sales receipt. Watch is new, stickered up, with an unsized bracelet and boxfresh as the pictures attest. There are no scratches, dents, scuffs, anything of that nature whatsoever. The watch has been kept in my tough, watertight, dustproof, pressure equalised PELI 1450 watch case (not inc) in a temperature controlled room and opened once a month to give the movement a full wind. Please note after a 2022 price increase, this same watch is £5,500 at the Seiko Boutique, saving you over £1,000.
The watch plays with the light dramatically. The Zaratsu polished high-intensity titanium case, bracelet and dial polishing is unlike others.The indices and hands on this watch are so remarkably well polished that you can see the time perfectly in all but a pitch black environment. The layered dial is mesmerizing and you'll just never get tired of looking at it.
A ground breaking, hacking and smooth sweeping Spring Drive model with a high-intensity titanium case and bracelet providing a scratch and corrosion resistant finish, making it 30% lighter than stainless steel and a pleasure to wear. The 9R65 unique caliber, which combines the motive force of a mainspring found with the high precision of a quartz watch. The blue steel second hand moves smoothly in glide motion, and glows over the contrasting pure white dial to create an even more dramatic movement. It has a 72-hour (3-day) power reserve with power reserve indicator.

Question to the Forum...

While on vacation this past week I had the opportunity to handle the Amvox 2 and was really impressed.. I always thought the 42+ MM JLC would be too b

After that I can say that my old dial with SEIKO under 12 and GRAND SEIKO above 6 is more symmetrical and prefe
Grand Seiko Snowflake Spring Drive SSD
Definitely a must in one’s WIS collection IMO for a host of reasons: 1. Dial is one-of-a-kind, truly an artwork from GS craftsmen. Calmly yet mesmerizing. Agree that it’s not for everyone who may be underwhelmed, but not me. 2. Movement is one-of-a-kind, an “engineering” feat if I may say. Sensation
Grand Seiko SBGA011 "Snowflake" : an In-Depth Review.
What a dial. Released in 2010, the Grand Seiko SBGA011 remains one of the iconic timepieces in the GS product lineup and needs little introduction. It is often referred to as the "Snowflake", due to the notable white textured dial like snow. As Baselworld 2017 came about, it was announced that Grand
