It's really a GS week.... Mind boggling

Hello everybody, Just wanted to share my excitement with you... Although already a very happy owner of a SBGW047 (which will soon adorn my brother's wrist!) and a SBGV011, I couldn't help myself from pulling the trigger for the set, especially as a dealer...  

Wow, wow, hey... Grand Seiko 55th Anniversary Set!

I can't say enough "Congrats!" to you and honestly and sincerely hats off to you, sir! Please share more pics! Wonderful set, indeed.... Great set, must be rare, I am sure. Never seen one in Japan.... Great catch! Ken

Wow and wow! What a surprise!

Congratulations! I've never heard or seen of this set. What a great collection, and what courage to grab them. Cheers, Cazalea

it is indeed interesting that very little is known about this set! Having said that, living close to China one is constantly running a risk of picking up counterfeit goods ;o) I realised that the photo quality is rather poor, I'll try to upload some more ... 

can't wait to see these beauties!

Wow

A truly mind bogglingly impressive set - excellent that you managed to get this!

More photos

 
 By: Ambos : August 14th, 2015-10:14
thanks to Seeks' skills some more photos... But still a challenge to capture objects which sparkle all over and play with the slightest variation of angles and light! ...  

Thank you very much for this additional pictures

Now it's even more painful to look at your post :) Best Damjan

Don't want to rub it in

 
 By: Ambos : August 18th, 2015-08:56
but i managed some decent close ups of the 62GS, as it's the youngest kid on the block. The level of finishing is astonishing, the hour markers the true highlight on the dial for me! The thickness of the watch surprises me everytime, adding to the wrist p...  

Finish...

Go ahead, rub

there's nothing like the fun you can have taking photos of GSs. It's hard to get an overdose, and I've tried! Cheers Cazalea (old post - GAGGLE of GSs )

Capitulation

Have had my eye on 62gs for ages ... You may have just through me over the edge!

Buy it if you can get your hands on one...

Good luck! Even within the GS universe a true gem.

Grand Seiko 55th Anniversary Set!

Gongratulations Ambos! I would expect to find such a set but impossible to order it through the European GS ADs as soon I collect the CutSheet of the Set in July from JP. Very lucky you are but we share a bit with you thanks your pictures. Best

Wow!

Congratulations to you. This set IMO is easily the nicest watch set that any watch company has ever come out with. Love the Historical Collection. Recently, I have been fortunate enough to find a Self-Dater with the black dial and a 62GS, not an easy task... 

Seiko cannot be trusted...

 
 By: Ambos : September 21st, 2016-06:15
Congratulations on your successful treasure hunt! You managed to find 2 fantastic timepieces... I am convinced they will provide you lots of satisfaction and increased pleasure and interest in GS. The Self-Dater was my first GS and since then things happe...  

And they are contagious

 
 By: Ambos : September 21st, 2016-07:36
Within 2months 3 of my colleagues pulled the trigger as well... Might be the highest concentration of Self-Daters on one floor ;o) Interestingly, our local colleagues picked the silver dials, the Caucasians opted for the dark dial. ...  

What an excellent purchase!

That is such a great set mate, truly something to be proud of! The 44gs is my personal favourite. Congratulations!

Thank you!

I truly treasure it.
