The ultimate stealth watch
Nov 18, 2016,13:15 PM
To say I am smitten by it is an understatement - your excellent review is making me even more so In addition to all its GS qualities it also has that ultimate understatement, something no Swiss watch manages to pull off so well. May be seen as a weakness by some but I truly love it!
Enjoy the beauty and I hope you'll share it with us regularly going forward

Arrival of the perfect GS - SBGD001
By: Molle : November 14th, 2016-10:50
Seiko's target with the first Grand Seiko in 1960 was simply to make the best watch. The "best" typically means some kind of precious metal. The watch that was the result, the 3180, did of course quite naturally come in platinum also though much more scar...
Amazing.

All the photos showing the beauties of GSs and Credors. The SBGD001 definitely oozes understated quality and craftsmanship. Although I did not know it's made in platinum, I already suspected it just by looking at the banner photo shown on the front page, ...
Congratulations on this gorgeous piece, the perfect GS

This watch is the perfect blend of classic looks and modern technicalities. It's great to see the power reserve on the back and the 8 day power is just super handy, especially that Spring Drives should need less maintenance than its pure mechanical counte...

Ridiculous beauty and fineness

I have to wonder though, at this price point... so many ultimate choices... but I do profoundly admire this watch.
This is a super watch...

Can you share with us a wrist shot to see how this fit the wrist in real life? I love this piece.
Can I ask u...

is that a deep scratch on the bottom right lugs? If so, how that happen, considering Seiko platinum is very hard. Did you check with them if they will do laser treatment for u in future and the servicing will be done by the Micro art studio? Eichi servici...
I did it myself the first day...

Don't really know how but hit something metallic really hard. A bit sad but a watch that will be used will get some scratches. Unfortunately this one is quite big and on top of the lug. I will see if they can do something when I am in the Micro Artist Stu...
Do let us know what they say...

I'm seriously considering
By: tom2517 : December 26th, 2016-11:16

Ordered today
By: tom2517 : December 29th, 2016-23:57
No longer just a temptation, it\'s now a reality. Deposited ~ $7000 USD , one and a half month wait I was told.
Yes I will take pix
By: tom2517 : January 11th, 2017-09:24
Dealer called me and said the watch is delayed till end of Feb. Meanwhile here is me with my Bamford Rolex trying on friend\'s space walk, which I recall you have one as well. ...
