As the recent purchaser of a SBGJ211, my initial thought is
“interesting”.
I realize that’s not exactly a deep thought, but I’m not sure what to say about a new model that looks like mine with a luminous GMT hand and a different rotor.
As for those differences: 1) the luminous GMT hand is a practical addition but the blued, non-luminous hand on what I have is very well done; 2) while I like the new rotor I also like the one which my watch is fitted with.
Oh yeah it looks like the dials are a little different, too.
Guess I’d have to compare the two models in the metal (Ti) to render a more cogent analysis and opinion.

Love the blue accents but dial is not as nice as 201 mt iwate dial. Will pass on the rotor that hides the movement but can’t wait to see in person though. Wish the made the 201 mt iwate dial with that blue gmt hand and blue GS logo.
