I can’t begin to explain how amazing this watch wears, feels and looks! The bezel-less boxed shaped sapphire is awesome! ...  

my plan is to rebuild my collection around this and the snowflake

perhaps one Quartz to add in the future

Outstanding watch

I checked it out. It’s the same case as the snowflake so I went with the 62GS case style. I think their case work is top notch!

I agree, their case works is outstanding [nt]

does anyone know if the hands are gold plated or 18ct gold? [nt]

The applied logo and second hand on mine but the green summer version has all gold.

that was seriously cool to see! I take it you took a tour of one of their studios? incredible!

As moderator, while on a visit to Japan I was invited to GS

I went to the Ginza store, Seiko museum, Shizukuishi and Shinshu studios. Start here for the tour

will take a look thanks!

When I went to Japan in 2015 I was still on my Rolex love affair! Had I known more about GS I would have tried to at least visit the studio!
