I almost get myself one but the blue lion logo on the case back blocking the view of the movement somewhat deters me. But the dial and case is indeed very attractive! [nt]

Fall for that dial alone. ...  

That is a beautiful watch.

Do you know what tihe technique is on the dial?

Dial production technique

You can read about it here - basically it involves brushing the dial with a brass wire wheel, under a running lubricant stream. GRAND SEIKO FACTORY TOUR Cazalea

Fantastic installment. I’m glad you posted the link?

I took the whole tour. It must have been quite an experience to go there. I need to find a GS store to play with the pieces. Also, I would love to see the Credor Eichi. I still find it mind boggling when I see pictures. Thank you, Mike!

Would love to see one in the real...

I do like it, the best of the last few years for GS in my opinion. The Rose Gold with the amber (red to me) Urushi dial is fantastic too.

For the steel, I hesitated on this one as I expect numerous additional releases with other dials and I was waiting on one that really sang to me. If I could have justified the spend I would have jumped on the Rose Gold with that red dial though.

Nice one

The watch dial is always my first point of consideration when buying a watch. But now i am buying the dial that I like and make a watch that i will love.... Kanagawa Great Wave dial on a SKX009 ...
