Do you mean the real 44 GS?

commented on SBGY011 - Who needs a vintage GS/KS? ·

I’ve never been a fan of bigger case sizes and just found modern watches (not just GS) at 40mm or more just look kinda overbuilt.

I’m loving the manual wind 36mm 44GS that came out. However not SD.

I’m waiting on the grail setup of 36/38mm 44GS SD. And I’ve a gut feeling it’s a grail for many.

So till then, the vintage pieces satisfy me.
