I do like the ones posted by Deuxani a lot.

That’s my absolute favorite case they make! Different strokes. I’ve chewed through like 30 GS, finally drew that conclusion

Very nice new releases.

Those 2 blue & green simple models look lovely. They look like the small (37.3mm) hand wound models, e.g., SBGW273/5/7 and the European equivalent (SBGw267/9). If it's the case, they work great with the OEM grain-of-rice bracelet:

looks awesome! that’s the 269 right?

mdtddd2007 · 9 January 2022, 02:27 AM

These 2 are nice.

Nice looking watches and gorgeous dials, could be tempting, but still a hard pass on account of the same ol' GS bracelet. At least they are throwing in a free strap to address the bracelet shortcomings.

The strap is not free, if you buy one you will have paid for it but I understand what you are saying. My AD said they were told they will have these watches this week. Waiting to go in and see them.

Can’t wait to see your 295 midweek

i really want to buy a GS and i love the look of these, but i just cant get past how thick they are for a dress watch. 12.5mm is crazy to me.

I definitely wouldn’t classify these or any GS in the heritage line as dress watches. These two cases are fantastic (own examples of both) even though I agree would be nice if 1-2mm thinner.

I reserved the SBGH295. The SA is not sure when they will come in. But he told me they have 2 SBGA471 in the boutique.

Bearxj86 · 11 January 2022, 02:58 AM

Does this make the SBGA387 less special?

They ALWAYS degrade their priors

Mike507 · 11 January 2022, 09:41 AM

I agree that they aren't quite dress watches, but they definitely aren't sports watches either, and I feel like i'd end up wearing them either at work or if I'm dressing a bit more smart.

Maybe I'll go try one on and see if I feel any differently.

If they were 10.5-11, I would snap buy one. It just frustrates me that they aren't.

I went into BH boutique today to buy the sbgh295 and walked out with slga007.
Was a nice dial and movement but it just didn’t do it for me.

The SLGA007 is on a completely different level!

congratulations!

Thank you. Yes, it is. the pictures don’t do it justice.

I reserved this way h but also reserved the new white birch. Not sure which way to go. Leaning towards the white birch.

1William · 13 January 2022, 10:09 PM

I saw these watches yesterday at my AD and liked them but not enough to buy one or both. I am going to wait and see what else is released.

SSGMT · 16 January 2022, 02:01 PM

I have both of these references, I'm really enjoying them. I haven't had a 44GS or 62GS case before and I like them both. The dials are awesome, the details of them as you wear them are (as with all GS's) very nice to look at, the light blue of the dials seems to accentuate the details.

Congrats! Please post some pics when you can!

Do ADs still have the SBGH 295 in stock?

Amazing dials.

I won’t repost the pix again Adam.

AD said they are getting one per door. Had to see it in the metal. Very lovely piece.

daytonaTBR · 23 January 2022, 04:16 AM

Placed a deposit the day it came out and I’m being told est Apr delivery for the 295. Is this hard to get now?

Sandpit · 23 January 2022, 06:07 AM

In terms of the shade of blue, how close is this to either the skyflake or the Omiwatari?

I think so. When I picked it up they weren’t getting anymore. Not limited edition but low volume apparently

WatchesNBlondes · 23 January 2022, 11:53 AM

I'd like to see this in person, but who knows if there is any availability.
