While the 9S68 movement that got launched with this one did not quite get the traction GS might have intended and certainly did not replace the older time only non-Hi-Beat movements, the watch will remain the one, where the new single logo identity was la

I might be one of the few members here apart from him that regularly puts GSs on a pink strap. The SBGR305 doesn’t have the fully matching dial but the sweater fits 😁 Even found a matching (-ish) colored car on the parking lot of the cafe to go with it 😉

In a thread recently (here it is) - where I posted my original grail Grand Seiko, the SBGH035, Captain Scarlet mentioned it would be quite helpful if I expounded on how I started appreciating GS and what got me down that particular rabbit hole. So with a

Here’s a shot from this morning with the Grand Seiko SBGR305 and some blue shoes from Kenya 🇰🇪 And here a better shot of the shoes - while not originally intended for that purpose, they make for fantastic driving shoes, with the thin soles. Wishing you a
