Two accessibly priced versions of new GS movements

commented on What is the most useful complication to you? For me it is the worldtimer! ·

Agreed on the utility of a world timer complication. The main issue I have is that most aren’t legible in reading the primary time, since the dial is so busy with cities. Most of the time, I’m glancing at my watch to see the time, so that is of utmost importance to me.

The Omega is a rare exception — the dial is supremely legible for the primary time and seeing the other time zones is also easy. Very few get this right (Farer also does), but the Omega is great!

That LE is gorgeous. If I didn’t have this, I would be looking for that one. Agreed on that one being sought after.

Agreed! I didn’t even do it justice in this shot, either!

I’m NOT normally into aging on watches but I must admit watching a bronze watch develop patina from being with you is something else. It creates a truly close connection with the watch. Several good options out there.

Agreed.  I’ve already cleaned this once and now just letting it to its thing. The clasp has some impressive colors going on. Will post that later.

Definitely a great dial! Not many top GS in my opinion, but this dial is amazing. 

commented on Grand Seiko SBGW275 today ·

Totally agreed. The dial work they do is always impressive.
