Beautiful. Congratulations!!

Very nice, congrats.

I have posted a thread about the SBGA127 LE wanting to know if it is still possible to find a new one somewhere, but have had no replies so thought I would post here, anyone have a clue where I could get one? It is the one I would like, many others are nice but not enough to my liking to be getting one

topcat30093 · 20 May 2016, 06:40 AM

Congratulations, I have a great deal of respect for Seiko GS.

The quality of their works, imo beats or equals many Swiss top brands.

This is not the "snowflake" texture that became famous in the spring drive GS model, but a different and quite amazing different texture.

Exactly the same in the sense that you can't quickset the date? I ask because it would be useful to me to have a quickset mechanism on the GMTIIC because I do not leave he watch on a winder and I often have to advance many days when I pick up the watch from storage.

incontrol · 20 May 2016, 07:05 AM

Grand Seiko makes a great watch! Yours is stunning. Many congrats!

Thanks PJ, I put a subscription for the thread but got no email, plus it appears in normal characters, not in fat ones, so I didn't pay attention,

Correct, to set the date, you must move the hour hand in 1 hour increments, like the gmt master II.

Frogman4me · 20 May 2016, 12:52 PM

I love that dial! Congrats and enjoy my friend.

AF_Rob · 20 May 2016, 02:07 PM

Thanks for the clarification.

I can't help to come back to this thread to check the photos of you watch!

Thank you so much, my friends. I'm loving this one so far.

A couple more pictures for you, this time in indoor lighting, tilting the dial ever so slightly.

Le Chef · 21 May 2016, 01:22 AM

Beautiful piece and very high quality. It makes a very nice alternative to the Rolex GMT and comes without the baggage that brand often brings along.

improviz · 21 May 2016, 12:51 PM

MrJ320 · 25 May 2016, 11:44 AM

Love the dial texture. Congrats!

DCheeta · 25 May 2016, 01:48 PM

Wow, congrats Kauê! That's a beautiful GS, I struggled to decide between that model and the snowflake. Although I ended up with the snowflake, I now have no doubt that I will get the hi-beat GMT some time down the road. It's a fantastic piece!

Your photos do come close to doing it justice, especially the last two you posted. I must have taken a hundred photos of mine in different lighting and I still can't capture how impressive it is in person. Your description of how light plays off the watch is spot-on.

Congrats again!

Gulfstream · 29 May 2016, 10:37 PM

Beautiful!

The Grand Seiko is really start to draw my attention. Such richness of details!

GB-man · 30 May 2016, 12:21 AM

Love it! That's the one to get imho. The way they do indices, hands and dials is borderline without peer.

I agree, it's a very classy execution of the GMT complication. Thanks!

Thanks a lot, Dave. The snowflake is irresistible, I can't blame you.

These watches are a joy to admire, and trying to capture the textures and angles sure is a challenge. Thanks again, my friend!
