Love / hate with new Grand Seiko anniversary release

Mixed feelings about this...on the one hand, I love the look of these models, as I'm obviously biased (that's my SBGW 253 in the 2nd pic).

On the other hand, it seems that they keep going back to this model. First it was 2011 (in the smaller case), then they did it back in 2017 as an LE, and now it's back in 2020, but as normal production run.

It just sings of the Panerai / Omega model to me (flooding the market with what people want); I for one like watches that aren't as easy to find sitting at the AD, and if you make an LE, it should be just that. I know these are different materials / dial colors, but it's nearly identical to the 2017 models.
