Here’s it’s high beat older brother (older by just 1 year)
I think the grooves in the textured dial are a little deeper on mine.
Stopped by the GS boutique in BH yesterday to find a new SLGA009 . . .
. . . on display. Sorry for the color balance, but as Jocke has been known to say, "If you give a guy a flute, does that make him a flutist?" ...
Nope, not my kinda watch, Christian - strictly a mechanical guy here, but . . .
. . . the King Seiko Mike shared last week is much to my liking and on the must-have list. Sooner rather than later, methinks. Best, Art

Thanks for sharing a clearer photo! . . .
. . . goes a long ways to showing the mix of brushed and polished surface treatments from above. Compare to my SBGW279 . . . . . . with its entirely polished bezel. Art ...
Great shot, Art! Making me hungry
I love that 44GS case design and the vertically brushed granite dial on yours, Art! Gotta have at least one GS in a collection imho 👍😊
Precisely. That's Dr No's Rule #3: . . .
. . . "Every watch guy needs a GS at least once in his collecting career." Rule #1? A Speedy Pro. Rule #2? An indie. Rule #4? An El Primero. ...
Hah
I like the quote about a flute. I’m hesitant about the new style of hour hands but I’m digging the new movements from GS, and the dials, well I don’t think I need to elaborate on that
