Here's the correct link to my series on getting into Grand Seikos. Lots of info (old but mostly still valid; and I still have most all the watches shown here)

And what a wonderful collection you have. Just a question. Are the watches on the back row, middle on a bracelet and far right on a strap, similar to mine apart from having Seiko written on them? The SBGW231 ...  

Yes, very similar

Same movement architecture, case shape & crystal but yours has a better mainspring made of Seiko’s SPRON material for another day or so of running time. I think also more precise escapement parts.

Thanks Mike!

You can never be too rich, too poor or own too many Grand Seiko’s!

I think that was too rich, too thin, or too blonde

counting from top right. Eventually the one that stays is the 005 with metal bracelet I do like them all though.

errr... not true.
