Thanks KH...very beautiful piece! A question....
anyone asked why you still get it , with a solid case-back?
To me as long as the engine is solid, I'm assured and need not look at it... what's your thoughts?
By the way, is the back with the insignia stamped?

Any suggestion of Time only Grand Seiko?
Does any purists here has a picture of a Manual winding Grand Seiko without date? I'm wondering if it ever exist. Thought it will be a nice collection together with my Simplicity and Observatoire. I'm very excited about Seiko watch now ;-) Lovesss*CL
Manual time only GS
There are 4 models and they all use 9S54 movement (the 1st 3 pictures are from Seiko Japan): 1. SBGW007, white gold, ~US17000 2. SBGW008, yellow god, ~US8300 3. SBGW005, SS, ~US3800 4. SBGW001, SS, ~US3400 This message has been edited by SJX on 2008-01-03...
And one more model
which I just examined a few days ago. Usually I don't go for a yellow gold watch, with a yellow gold dial, and yellow gold hands; but in this case the watch is very attractive. I don't know if I'd wear something like this on a daily basis, but as an eveni...
SBGR002 is an automatic rather than amanual.....
A few more pictures of my SBGW001: It comes with a pin buckle. I change it to a deployant....

I like solid case back......
especially with the modern GS that has the back with the insignia stamped. It is not a "golden coin" present in the old models. This is the case back of my SBGM001:...
a modern version:
most of the original (1960s-70s) GS were available without date as well. Here is mine, circa 2001:...
Stunning SBGW003.....
It is because of your review (which I had read many times) on SBGW003 that I brought my SBGW001. Your pictures are always breath-taking! All the best! KH
wow, Steve; question
Steve, that's absolutely gorgeous. Is that SS or WG? And what's the diameter? Is this model still manufactured? I'm now very intrigued. - Jon
I think this model is Stainless Steel and .....
it is limited to 300 pieces. Should still be able to find one in Tokyo. I'm now going for this particular piece as I have always loved arabic numeral. Lovesss*CL
Steve - its because of your GS that started it all ....
for me for my quest to acquire a GS. Having looked in earnest and researched the web, I could only find that the GMT would sit right on my wrist as the 003 is just a tad smal for my wrist. If ever they were making a 39.2 mm model of it, I would queue over...
One more for an old GS
Here is another example of a time-only hand-wound GS getting its first life in 1960....GS3180. Joe...
Purists Watch - SBGW003 in gold
I suggest we team up, go to Seiko, and ask for another hundred of the SteveG SBGW003 watch, in rose or white gold, and make that our Purist Special Edition watch. OK, maybe this is the wrong thread, but who could ask for a much more beautiful watch. Maybe...
Grand Seiko SBGW003
Guys I have a LNIB SBGW003 that I need to sell. It is complete with all boxes and paperwork. Worn 2-3 times. Can anyone tell me what the current value is? I know everyone is looking for one but what is the real market paying for them? If it can't be poste...
Grand seiko
SJX ,my apologies. I was going to post on the marketplace. I was just looking to get some input on what I should ask for it. Sorry if I screwed up some rules.
