So clean

Been taking the alpinist on vacation lately. Good water resistance, works well on outdoor activities and going out to dinner. Green and gold is more versatile in person than it looks in photos online. It doesn’t look out of place whatever I’m wearing or doing. It also attracts surprise compliments from watch nerds.

The gmt with inner 24 hour scale + dive bezel is a great combo for travel

I guess there are others who do this with their Grand Seiko 😀

Thanks all. This dial was part of their annual series, and "fiery orange" was the color for 2019. The watch and the company have a very interesting history. This dial was made on equipment from the 60s and straight hour markers are cut into the dial by hand-operated machine. Here's a video showing how it's made (starting at 2:21). https://youtu.be/dhCM2sR0FB8?si=sABTu0fOzva6dDPL&t=141

Seeing this makes me miss Crown & Caliber's hidden gems videos.

Absolutely. Just got a tank and have been wearing it with everything.
