Hi All,

I went into a AD in Hong Kong and saw this watch, a absolute stunner. It was gone the next day...

Not my pick, taken from this review:

GS watches never disappoint.

I've seen it at the AD here in Singapore. If I'm not wrong it's an Asian only LE. Absolutely gorgeous in the metal.

Which AD?

Sick.

With each GS picture being posted on these shores.. I'm edging closer to one myself.

Perhaps, But it's still a nice watch.

Simply stunning

It was King Fook Jewellery Group Ltd, next to Ikea, CWB. I believe there's only about 150 of these limited versions available. While I like the SBGH001, the green Tapisserie dail with the gold second hand is very special. It was about 10% more expensive than the SBGH001/5 (HKD55,000 or USD 7,050)

I subsequently visited all the GS stockists in HK to find this watch with no luck.

The nicest use of gold color i've ever seen. Only some text and a second hand is gold so it's not too much but it gives a bit of a contrast to it. I love it.

 

[CitizenM]

it's cool but I still like the old one

Yes - that is a stunner. You been away Citizen?

 

[RejZoR]

This one is a classic anyway...

I like that fact that (Grand) Seiko offers different textures and patterns on their watch dials, I wish more companies did this.

 

[CitizenM]

ah just super busy over here

Oh man I want a GS soo bad. Only thing holding me back is the Japan only service (aside from the prices of course but that's a concern for everybody).

Our postal system is so crap and untrustworthy, forget about shipping out and shipping back watches for service.

I know this is unsolicited but that's the peace of mind of buying a Rolex DateJust (or Omega AT, heck even a Patek) instead: the existence of a service center in Manila.

Still really like these, if I would buy one would love to have one without date and a manual wound.
