Moses, you will find that there is a growing community here...
in regards to the GSs.
I have the SBGM003 and just love it. I wear it more than any other piece, even more than my Patek.
The craftsmanship will rival most high-end manufacturers, Swiss or other wise.
Do post some pictures!

Seiko / Grand Seiko
Greetings all, Since I just returned from vacation in Japan, I was just wondering what the Purists think of Seiko/Grand Seiko mechanical watches. I , personally, am quite impressed. Judging from what I have seen and from the one that I own, the mid to hig...
i like them.
i have 2 vintage handwind Grand Seiko's and 1 kind seiko. i also have a tokyo olympics 1 button chrono and a 66A calibre handwind also from 1964. i've owned a new GS GMT and am sort of looking for a modern handwind. they are great watches and very underra...
The merits of Grand Seiko watches and the brand...
is one of the constant re-occuring themes on this and other watch forums. You won't have to go back far to find plenty of discussion. That said I find the Grand Seiko offerings credible on all levels. I own the SWGB001 hand wind and love the immaculate fi...
Great brand/ watches
May not be too appealing design, but simple is what they aim. Build quality and accuracy is almost scary. EVEN quartz watches are high-end in Grand Seiko line. Accuracy is their ultimate goal. all the way. If a bit of uniqueness is wanted, Credor brand gi...
Hi Moses, I inherited one from my Dad
a Seiko bought in 1969! Still in great running condition. May the Seiko gurus provide more info of my watch? Thanks in advance! Mech....
Mech, i'm going to...
Mech, i'm going to post a thread about 2 recently aquired vintage Seiko's with an explanation about dating them, but to give you a quick answer yours has a 7005A calibre first introduced in the late 1960's. the first 2 bumbers on the serial number indicat...
I have GS SBGE001 Spring Drive GMT
on the way in. Believe it or not, I chose to get this over a Rolex Sub Date. Why? Well, I wanted a casual, understated weekend sports watch and something not so common. A good friend then suggested this and when I went to take a look at it, I was greeted ...
Grand Seiko has been discussed here many times
I like it a lot...maybe I should use the word, love. So, I love GS. The quality is superb, there's no sense of "ordinary or cheap" feeling at all, it's just like holding a high quality Swiss watch. I got one, bought in 2008 and it has been accurate. Not a...
Grand Seiko
I have the same model as Rei but in white dial. Got it from Hong Kong in 2009 and it is really keeping very good time. It does not feel cheap at all and i look forward to see the new Hi-Beat in flesh.

Moses : Warning! Do so at your own risk. This SJX character
never has anything good to share! LOL
haha. well, I suppose..
if causing more expenditure is not good, then I agree. That SGBM003 is really a beauty. I wonder is it if available in the Seiko building (ThongSia) in Singapore. hmmm... I am now very tempted to go down for a look! Cheers, Moses

May I be candid?
Hi, Moses, Simple answer to your basic question, which is asking for a personal opinion, after all: I RESPECT GS and the other top of the line Seikos IMMENSELY. There is a certain integrity, a "purity" to the final product vis a vis the stated and implied...
Strong views
and I guess we have come to expect nothign less from you ThomasM. A big reason I moved for the GS is I wanted something less common than the Rolex. Well, at least of the people I know, most wil have rolexes as opposed to GS. Mabe I've got funny circles LO...
meta vs literal
Hi,WmclarenF1 GS is not like Porsche; GS is to Patek as Porsche is to Ferrari. I'm comparing the relative relationship, not the nodes of the relationship. I did ask if I might be candid...
That's really quite a compliment, Thomas . . .
. . . because while Porsche and Ferrari are by most accounts competing on the same turf, my sense is that many watch aficionados wouldn't necessarily place GS and PP on the same playing field . . . or am I reading too much into your analogy? Intrigued, Ar...
Tool
Hi THomas. Interesting comments. One of the things I like about them is that they are cold. They're a tool taken to its logical extremes with no fuss or superfluous adornment, and that's something I appreciate immensly. Having said this, some of the dial/...
Thanks to everyone for your candid and varied varied views
I will certainly be doing further research into this brand. Cheers, Moses
Simply irresistible...
Personally and practically, I just can't go any further when life is without GS...expressing a strong design philosophy and never-ending passion toward ultimate accuracy from this big brand...
practical
that how i see the brand and the watches, accurate and practical.... no more than that. Faisal
I still love mine
Although it's getting time that I took the thing apart and gave the movement a good cleaning. We'll see how I really feel after that.
I like many of their designs...
...and I own a GS GMT, which has been literally faultless in implementation and operation. Many of Seiko's designs seem based on the gestalt of the 1960s. Simple, classic dials, hands and cases. These are often so perfectly executed that I can understand ...
Seiko is a great watch maker...
hi Moses, when i was young and did not know much about watches, but i still remember clearly the watch on dad's wrist was a simple Seiko. my impressive was Seiko is a very nice looking, valued for money and durable watch. i was saying to myself that i wil...
