Hello everyone,

I have a Never worn brand new in box, mechanical High-Beat, Grand Seiko SBGJ203 Mount Iwate dial GMT. Purchased in February 2023, transferable factory warranty is good until February 2028. Selling for only £3,999 or best offer.The watch retails at the GS boutique for £6,150, saving you in excess of £2,000. Purchased from a Grand Seiko authorised dealer, it comes complete with outer sleeve, GS box, watch cushion, rice paper, user manual, padded certificate wallet and factory warranty cards/ documents. Watch is new, stickered up, with an unsized bracelet and boxfresh as the pictures attest. There are no scratches, dents, scuffs, anything of that nature whatsoever. 

 

The watch plays with the light dramatically. The Zaratsu polished case, bracelet and dial polishing is unlike others. The indices and hands on this watch are so remarkably well polished that you can see the time perfectly in all but a pitch black environment. The layered, aesthetic dial is mesmerizing and you'll just never get tired of looking at it at different lights and positions.

 

A high-precision smooth sweep hi-beat 36000 with refined design, this model incorporates Caliber 9S86, the high-specification movement that delivers the same accuracy (-5 to +3 seconds a day) and the same power reserve (55 hours) as the core Caliber 9S85, while also offering the GMT function that the international traveller needs to ensure that the accuracy of the time shown is not compromised when the time zone is changed. The GMT hand shows the time in the home time zone. The exterior design is a modern take on the stunning 'Grand Seiko Style' the embodiment of the Grand Seiko design philosophy which was first established for the 44GS in 1967 and features a distortion-free, wide mirror surface throughout. A beautifully delicate and polished finish has been created on the dial, with a 'Mount Iwate pattern', inspired by the many-ridged contours of the mountain that is visible through the windows of the Shizuku-Ishi Watch Studio where Grand Seiko mechanical watches are made.
