Grand Seiko 6145-8000

As far as I remember, it was a 10 years wait until I find a Grand Seiko exactly the way I wanted. Then it came this impecable 6145-8000. Exactly what I wanted, as I really appreciate the 61xx series of calibers. The 6145 is even more appealing to me than the day-date 6146. And the 8000 case is just the perfect example of the Grammar of Design. Not even close to be the most expensive piece in my collection, but one of the most valuable in every term. The clasp is a modern one, but a perfect fit. Cheers, Adriano
