Incoming: Grand Seiko SLGH005 white birch

[thegrandseirolexguy]

Exploring the mangrove swamp with my new Shirakaba.

Bought it used for what I believe to be a fair price of US$5,185.00 including local sales tax. Full set with most of the warranty still remaining (January 2023).

Lovely watch, and the most comfortable one I’ve ever owned despite its lack of an on-the-fly bracelet micro adjust feature.

Externally, this watch is finished to a degree that would command a far higher retail price tag if it were a Swiss brand.

Internally, no real comment because I’m no expert. Seems like a functional and industrial finish with not much in the way of a decorative finish. But it’s mesmerising to see the escapement spin at such a high velocity.

Absolute joy to wear this next generation Grand Seiko wristwatch.
