"Date-Free" Watch Shopping available now from Grand Seiko

Oct 12, 2016,15:02 PM
 



Many of us, being opinionated PuristS, tend to go on and on about "NO STINKING DATE WINDOWS" on our watches. After reading the umpteenth thread on this, as Moderator on this sub-Forum I have decided to take action. 




Herewith, the table of Grand Seiko models that are available without dates. Including ladies models you will see the case sizes range from 26 to 43 mm. The movement choices include mechanical (auto and hand wind), Spring Drive, and quartz. You can have general production or limited editions; precious metal or steel; strap or bracelet. A variety of dial colors, textures and hands. Click in the left column to see an image of the watch.

woohoo....

that is purity... Best, mahesh.,

You never fail to impress, Cazalea :)

 
 By: KMII : October 12th, 2016-20:06
Thank you for this no date summary of the Grand Seikopedia! The hunt is on

The "Grand Seikopedia" I like that!

 
 By: cazalea : October 12th, 2016-20:39
Thank you for the compliment. Now I have to fix the one wrong image I found this evening ... Cazalea

Definitely well earned :)

 
 By: KMII : October 13th, 2016-03:30
Wish such overviews were available for other brands, too!

My no date GS

 
 By: modest collector : October 12th, 2016-22:58
Impressive collection, Cazalea! and what a valuable catalogue that you share. Here\'s my SBGW005. I think they stop producing it. Has a second blue hand and I would say the dial is actually off white or even creamish depending on the lighting. Regards ...  

I love that watch too

 
 By: cazalea : October 13th, 2016-11:09
The color of the dial has proven very elusive and too varying to describe verbally, although "sort of white" is adequate. Cazalea ...  

To be fair

 
 By: MTF : October 12th, 2016-23:30
The vociferous "No date" supporters are a tiny minority amongst PuristS and general watch owners. They just shout louder. Most owners have both date and dateless watches. I have no particular fixed view as the date display is compulsory in some circumstan... 

Yes, you are right, the NO-DATERS are a minority

 
 By: cazalea : October 13th, 2016-10:59
But I had to be provocative, as I was trying to get them to consider buying a Grand Seiko and there happen to be plenty of no-date models. Unlike the Seiko clock I am working on this morning. Cheers, Cazalea ...  

Beautiful collection and list!

 
 By: indiehop : October 13th, 2016-00:06
Impressive list Cazalea!!!! Thank you. There are atleast two watches from the photos above I want to start hunting for immediately. Such beautiful elegant dials you have in your collection.

I recently read a post regarding manually wound GS

 
 By: ifraher : October 15th, 2016-13:49
With the 130th anniversary steel reference in particular catching my eye. Is there an existing list of manually wound GS available? Regards Ian

Not sure any manual winds in production but perhaps there are still some for sale new

 
 By: cazalea : October 15th, 2016-14:31
If you are asking for a spreadsheet similar to the no-date version, I can help you. These are the models I've catalogued with manual wind only movements, from Grand Seiko. Of course there are a few more from Credor. Mike Manual Winding GRAND SEIKO MODELS ... 

Amazing

 
 By: ifraher : October 16th, 2016-10:02
Thank you for your efforts.

Amazing! Thank you for all the effort!

 
 By: nwk00 : October 16th, 2016-21:48
Can I request an additional column for display back?

You can ask, but ...

 
 By: cazalea : October 16th, 2016-21:59
The file now lists about 400 Grand Seiko models. My guess is about 20-30% might have display backs, but I have no way of knowing that apart from researching each model again on the web, and looking for images of the back, or if very lucky, finding a text ... 

I know, a long shot.....

 
 By: nwk00 : October 16th, 2016-22:39
Just trying my luck. If I do start down that route I will be sure to note them down and pass it forward. Please keep up your good work, it's very much appreciated.

This is amazing!

 
 By: jrc693 : October 17th, 2016-00:35
Thanks!!

Wonderful information...

Thank you very much...I enjoy reading it

Gold GS Conundrum

 
 By: ChrisCPH : September 14th, 2020-00:42
Hi everybody, forgive me for reviving this post, but I just found it. I have several GS, including a SBGW035 and now looking to get a gold GS. So I was thinking SBGW038, but then remembered SBGW004. Similar yet very different watches. Which one do you lik... 

This one SBGW004

 
 By: cazalea : September 14th, 2020-09:36
I had a chance to buy one of these about 10 years ago, but passed on it. My mistake... Cazalea ...  

What a roundup!!! [nt]
