Vintage GS/KS- who needs a modern GS?
@loevhagen had a great post on his modern GS
And I so happened to receive 2 of my vintage pieces from zaratsu restoration.
My grail and still waiting- 44GS 38mm SD.
Not to mention, I don’t really have the $ for a brand new modern GS. So why not get 4 vintage pieces for less than the cos of 1 new modern GS!
From top
KS 5246-6000 monocoque
GS 4520-8000
GS SBGF-013 quartz (when I’m in a rush out the door, and just to own a sunray dial lol)
GS 6245-9000
I know I know…. Where’s the 45KS.
I’m on the lookout!

Beautiful watches. Enjoy.
I agree 👍(sort of)
I will eventually add a modern GS but I don’t think they have made the one for me yet.
The limited release inspired Nanbu Tekki ironware almost got me. For me though, if I’m getting a modern GS it’s gotta have a spring drive movement.
When will you be adding a “first grand Seiko” to the collection any time soon?
Just beautiful and so (classy and) classic! Thanks for sharing !!

Referring to this lovely piece:
Haha thought so but it doesn’t speak to me.
Nice my friend,I have same idea bidding on 45gs as we speak did want 44gs preferably one of there historical recreations because there unreal but so is the price as you know my friend one day 👌
Totally agree, vintage Grand seikos are quite the bargain
Where's the 57gs tho ?
This is my favourite era of Seiko 'sub-brands'. They look great.
It's a great little sub collection.
Have you considered adding a LordMatic as well?
5601-8000 & 9000 have the (I believe) first iteration of Seikos hi-beat mov't, some have a great linen dial and arabics too -my faves.
Nice collection
Nice collection
You have some rad pieces as well!
