New acquisition and my first attempts at photos
Last spring I asked for advice on my first purchase and Graham suggested a Grand Seiko. I bought several very nice Swiss watches locally before venturing onto the internet to look for vintage ones, with some hits and misses of course. Finally I decided to risk a bid on a vintage GS with a pretty dial out of Asia on ebait and apparently overbid because it is now mine. I picked it up at the post office, met my husband for dinner, opened the package and he exercised "droit de seigneur" and got to wear it first. It is now returned to me and I love this watch - a high beat 4520A movement - manual no date just clean and pretty. Please excuse the photos, but I haven't got proper lights to go with the new camera.
Thank you Graham, fellow addict
