Question around SBGM221 redesign
Jan 31, 2020,09:25 AM
Hello all - I've been a big fan of Grand Seiko's SBGM221 for a few years now. I'm leaning towards finally picking one up, but have heard rumor that GS is planning to release their 2020 watches in March. I realize folks aren't likely to know, but on the off chance someone does - can anyone confirm if that time frame is correct or if they are aware of any impending changes to the SBGM221? I'd hate to pick one up only for GS to shortly thereafter announce a newer (thinner?) version, for example.
Thanks!
