The bracelet is good and comfortable, the clasp doesn’t feel as well done as the modern Rolex ones but it is perfectly acceptable.

The green changes a lot according to the light, going from almost black to forest green, which makes the watch very versatile.

A couple of pics to show you what I mean:





Sorry for the long reply, I got carried away.

Hope this helps!

Appreciate the reply. Man that is sharp looking. I would love to go look at one but there are virtually no AD's that carry them. Hard to believe in the Baltimore/Washington area, with a population in the 10M range there is ONE location that sells Grand Seiko. Unreal. Not sure why more places don't sell them.

I'm really enamored with the spring drive system and the sweeping seconds hand. The zaratsu finishing looks amazing too. I've been on the lookout for a new travel watch and this one really looks like a good choice. I keep hoping for some pre-owned deals on this model in either green or black but so far they are hard to find and not much discount so far...

What a shame, but GS production is relatively small probably that is why they are not easy to find. I’m presently living in Taiwan and luckily there is a GS boutique in a department store and a GS AD both within walking distance from my place.

The spring drive sweeping seconds hand is truly mesmerizing.

Don’t give up and happy hunting, it is worth it!

Have a great weekend!

Best value for super-thin WP timepiece imho.
