The 44GS case is used, as far as I know, on bigger models, auto and spring drive watches, and it's a lot more complex and angular.. This is a much smaller & simpler case used on small hand wound watches. If you do a search on SBGW, you will see various models. There were 3 green models produced for the US market late last year (273/5/7) and it looks like there's a blue and a green one upcoming.

SBGW269 on grain-of-rice bracelet

This is a Europe-only non-limited edition which is the counterpart to the US SBGW273, 5, and 7 (which *are* number limited). The dial is very dark brown with a linen texture which is hard to see. I put it on the GS bracelet that was made for a different m...  

Very nice watch

I would be curious to try this one on

It has a classic 70s vibe to it. But isn't the size 37mm?

Yes, you're correct

It's 37.3mm. Thank you for the correction!

Love this combination

I had a very similar dialled GS which I sold last year to fund another purchase, considering this one to bring GS back into the collection.

Lovely

Haven’t seen this before. Unusual to see a brown dial like this but I like it. GS creates such interesting dials.

Very classics and nicely made.
