That dial is stunning

That dial is so interesting. It reminds me a lot of my work. Where I work we make carbon parts. One step in the process creates a surface texture and a color a few shades darker that the GS dial. Everytime we complete that step I think of GS. Unfortunately, there is no one at work to share this with that would understand what I am talking about. 😂.

Here is a bad picture of what it looks like.

Can't get this watch out of my head. I went a little nuts on GS purchases last year (including a Skyflake) so I keep telling myself to be rational and that I already have an eye-catching spring drive model. It's not helping that my FB feed is full of photos of blooming cherry blossoms.

Great job reporting from Watches and Wonders Zach.

My brother just picked one of these up this week. Where did you get your strap from? 

And it's a great watch! 

·

Nice strap pairing Zach!  I have the winter so I'm partial to the 4 seasons 😍

·

Amazing!!

·

This is such a great looking watch! Tried it a couple of weeks ago, and it both looks and feels amazing🌟

·

That watch comes alive on a leather strap. Stunning dial.

Thanks!  The strap is the natural shell cordovan from Delugs

Yah, I went from 0 to 3 GS in a year. They are addictive.

Really considering the new SBGW283 or SBGW285 as my first Grand Seiko but will wait for the Worn and Wound review

·

Awesome piece - spring is coming boi!!!!!

·

GS are just so awesome. It would be a tough choice deciding between a GS and a Rolex.

Almost every day is a good day for the SBGA413. It's pretty close to my daily beater. @zachweiss, what's your other Grand Seiko, other than the SBGW275?

·

It’s Cherry Blossom time in the DC area. Perfect time for this watch. Great look.

The SBGA375 - that was the first one I got, definitely a gateway drug!

Well, only one is readily available, so that helps!

Nice. The SBGA413 was my first. My first luxury watch even. I saw it, and knew I had to have it, though it took a few months for that to sink in. I'm plotting my next one, though I keep dithering. It could well be the SBGJ249.

I think the SBGA413 and SBGJ249 look great together. (but I may be a little biased)   😀

Aw man, I can't go copying you. But then again, great minds think alike.

Gorgeous dial. 

I picked mine up largely because of the uniqueness of the dial and the Spring Drive precision.

Very cool!

I won’t tell anyone.  Youre secret’s safe. 😀

Nice watch, I like the way the picture is framed and the outfit you paired the watch with.

·

Goals! 👏👏

·

That’s such a classic!!

It is always a good day for such a watch
