Orange is my favourite colour. Spring Drive is my favourite movement. GMTs are my favourite complication.
I wish this was a base model!!!
The SBGE301, a new limited edition release from Grand Seiko. What are your thoughts?

Seiko is losing their base with all these Limited Editions. I chuckled this week with the rollout of the Bruce Lee LE.
It is a gorgeous watch. If I were in the market for orange, this would have quickly jumped to the top of the list.
Very unique and sounds like it’s very you! I endorse you spending your money on that watch. FWIW hahaha
As the meme goes: "Shut up and take my money!"
Orange is the new green
Looks good!
Its look so classic. Do you like 24 hours bezel?
I can’t find this model is it in the US or another market?
Love love love
Love the case shape!
buy it if you can! If ut checks all the boxes you wont regret it.

JDM, 300 pieces.
I still laugh when I recall my last day working for my old architect boss who commented that I was so colourful that morning because I was wearing charcoal sweater under my black suit. I love colour but not for my clothes or dials on my watches. I have not been able to even source a first green dial watch from Grand Seiko, the orange is going to take even longer.
How limited? I’m sure it’s not Rolex Daytona kind of limited, if you try for surd you can get one at retail or for even a little under.
Love the bright orange - love grand seiko 🍻, you get my endorsement

Its a special collaboration model produced along with Esquire Japan for their 90th anniversary. 300 units exclusive to 4 GS boutiques only in Japan. Each boutique will have its own unique complimentary strap that will be supplied with the watch.
These are the four GS boutiques that will sell this model.
Love all of it! I hope you get to buy this and I will enjoy it vicariously.

Couldn’t agree more!! While i love everything/anything Bruce Lee since I was like 5, but LE at 15k is um not very limited or exclusive - not to mention the watch is NOTHING similar to the Seiko the man wore. 😏

Japan only.
Seems like the watch for you!
That's a bold color. I guess Grand Seiko being Grand Seiko it's inspired by "the fields of pumpkins on the slopes of Mount Iwate" 😜
Beautiful watch! Same here on all three points! Orange! Spring drive! Gmt!

I didn’t even know Bruce wore a watch

I agree, Seiko seems to be over doing this limited edition thing. But that Bruce Lee edition still looks good 😊

ROFL
Love orange too though I only have the 5KX GMT in that colour. If the Monster came back in orange, I’d snap one up damn quick.

You stole my thunder there, Antonio!
PS I couldn't care less what "inspires" GS dials. I would even prefer not to know.
"Well, there goes my money" could pretty much be the title of every post here on WatchCrunch.

Don't get me wrong, i generally love Grand Seiko dials when they are intricate and subtle, and I don't mind their inspired by Nature arguments.
I commented recently in another thread that maybe they should take a more Westerner approach to reach other audiences and I think this dial color can relate to that, is this the kind of color I see in other brands used very successfully, something bold and striking on its own, that just looks good. And I am sure the color in person will have more to it than what the stock photos shows.
Wow
