Added this to the SBGA387. Have to see it in person to appreciate (I think) but here are a few pics. My wrist is on the smaller end and am usually in the 39-40mm range but this 44mm seems to work.

Locust · 2 April 2019, 05:00 AM

Congrats! Thinking of picking that up too!

SN13 · 2 April 2019, 05:28 AM

Beautiful dial.

Congrats.

For some reason, many of the Seiko Case sizes wear smaller than I expect.

my 44mm MM300 for instance, feels more like 40-42. BUT it's thick.

Beautiful piece and great looking GMT

Don’t think it should last long at that price point....

I watched this. Great review I almost posted this but didn’t know if we could. And yes the bezel and dial just goes incredible together.

You have the best watch centered channel on youtube buddy. I remember last year when you were posting a couple spots and asking what TRF thought. Keep up the awesome work, I've been seriously impressed with everything you've done and appreciate your opinions. And I just ordered this watch from Thanh basically because of you. Thanks!

Love your videos. My wallet doesn’t feel the same way.

It would be cool if GS comes out a pepsi version like the Seiko pepsi diver.

I actually think Seiko is better than that for the GS line. There is already the SKX007 line if you want it.

henrylee · 3 April 2019, 03:36 PM

Beautiful

didyunt · 3 April 2019, 05:42 PM

Lovely Dial.

That's a nice pick up

Wondering so the lume on bezel are green, how about the hands and indices? Are they blue or green in person?

jcarm981 · 4 April 2019, 09:06 AM

It’s a light green. Honestly the pictures do no justice. Great watch - I saw David’s went quick didn’t last long on his site.

thekman · 4 April 2019, 09:11 AM

Just tried this out at the GS Boutique in NYC. Beautiful piece, wish it was smaller tho!

Yeah 40-42mm would be killer and a little less thick.

100%, would be perfect.
The larger case size here on this model though really is quite comfortable, a little surprised.

Sorry, you are wrong.
The watch wears relatively small, comparable to a 40 mm Rolex, the EXP II appears to be larger.

And if you take 2 mm from the watch, the dial would be tiny, it‘s already relatively small.

You have the bezel, the inner ring and all that takes mm from the dial.

I have to disagree. Mine wears nothing like my rolex GMT. Much thicker and larger. An expii might look bigger lug to lug but its much thinner.

Stunning piece that I immediately knew I wanted without even trying it on. I'm actually wearing it today! Looks great on you!
