I just found out that manual winding caliber 9S has a slip mechanism to prevent overwinding the mainspring

The SBGW231 is pure beauty. 37 mm. Manual winding. 70 hour PR. Big crown easy to wind. Old school Lug holes. Box shaped crystal. Warm, vintage looking cream dial. No excessive text, just Grand Seiko and the logo. No date, no day...only time. And the price is a bargain.
