An unexpected meeting
This morning met a friend that carries with him the SBGA211, didn’t know that he got it and it was a perfect change to put aside my old SBGA011 with his new one and take some pictures!!!!!
After that I can say that my old dial with SEIKO under 12 and GRAND SEIKO above 6 is more symmetrical and prefer it! Anyway both watches are perfect and keepers for the happy owners. 
For your eyes folks!!!!!!!!

The movement finishing has changed.
The most modern version of the Cal 9R65 has a winding weight with striping on it: This is the version in the SBGA211 and was in the last SBGA011's. Prior to that, and the most common version, of the SBGA011 it shipped with this version of the finishing: N...
