Newly purchased. I absolutely love it! The fit and finish are way beyond anything I expected. Being a Datejust owner, this rivals it in terms of quality.

I don稚 really get the GS bracelet hate. It is wonderfully finished. The brushing is perfection, as is the polished edges. Whilst a bit of clasp micro adjustment would be nice I知 happy with how it fits me.

Ugh, I love that watch. I知 primarily into 9F watches, but this is the one that could convince me to go spring drive.

Got myself a springbar tool and put the silicone strap on. I'm undecided whether it's pure genius or downright cheap

Just saw this post, so I'm a bit late, apologies ha.

I've had the SBGA415 for over two years and it's my favorite watch I've ever owned. Everything about it is wonderful but the titanium really is the cherry on top. Take the plunge...
