A trip out to Nottingham to Berry's to look at a Grand Seiko ended with me picking this 9f up after a bit of deliberation. Looked at the Snowflake and might get one later on funds permitting.

The local Rolex AD is across the road so I popped into wish them a Happy New year which proved to be a mistake or really good luck I'm not sure which.

Anyway waffling over my new SBGN009 limited edition of 2019 to celibate 50 years of the movement

I am amazed at the level of finishing on everything.

Pictures or it didn't happen. Taken under bad indoor lighting which to be honest don't do the watch any favours.

50 years of being celibate! Holy cow! You deserve more than just a watch!

Just kidding, I know it was a typo on your part. Congrats!

Very nice, congratulations. It's interesting to see the old Seiko Quartz logo all over the dial like that.

Thanks Adam the Dial is beautiful appearing black at times and then startling blue with the logo appearing on it when the light hits it. Looking forward to seeing it in proper daylight.

Great watch! I had a chance to try on the SBGN009. It's absolutely gorgeous in person.
