Incoming: GS SBGR311

New to me Grand Seiko SBGR311. That dial is just awesome. First dip into Grand Seiko and now torn between the new Moser Heritage Centre Seconds and the GS blue snowflake as my next buy. Also just for fun decided to compare the weight b/w this and my Sub. Difference was .30 oz, not bad for a 42 mm. 20191125_144132.jpg

Congratulations. It is a whole new world when you start looking at the models from GS. My problem is that so many watches could be in the collection from GS that it is difficult to choose.

Welcome to the world of GS.
I entered in 2014 and now I am addicted.
These watches have a tendency to put a spell on you.

Congrats on a beautiful watch!

I was looking at your SBGR 311 , such a great deal ! I have a 7 1/4" wrist, therefore , not sure about the 42 mm size . The 311 looks perfect on you, what is your wrist size ?

That’s a nice dial. The brown goes well with the gold seconds hand and applied GS logo.
