I have had my Grand Seiko for close to three months now and have enjoyed it thoroughly ... There is nothing quite like it in the Sub 10K range ... In my opinion, it competes directly with JLC, Rolex & GO with respect to its size, comfort, finishing, dial and demeanor.
I recall having to search through many many threads to dig up some real life photographs of Grand Seikos before pulling the trigger ..
Given the growing interest in Grand Seikos, I would urge everyone to share photographs of their GS for fellow Seiko enthusiasts and new buyers..
Cheers

I would begin the thread with my SBGE001 .. a treasured possession !
Great piece, I must admit though that I find the hands a bit undersized on that model (or the markers too dominant in comparison). Also, I wish they had made the minute hand a tad longer, but that is always a bit of an issue with dials where the minute track is on the rehaute.
I must admit. I didn't love SBGA029 at first despite of its excellent finish and spring drive technology. I had much temptation to sell it or trade it for SBGE001. I am glad that i did not do so. I cannot think of better diver watch that has such presence, movement and fit& finish.
My new SBGR053. Sorry for the terrible quality photos, it looks much much better in real life, I'll have to try and get some photos that really show off the quality. It's also made me want to slow down the buying and get more of these and less of the cheaper ones.
Very nice watch, congratulations!
I hear you regarding getting more of these - as soon as you have worn a GS for a couple of days, most other modern watches suddenly have sort of a cheap feel to them
Thanks Domo. I got it from Higuchi, his prices were the best I found, and cos I've used him before I felt safer, especially with such a big purchase.
