Hard to say, but maybe Grand Seiko Shimmering, combined with what it looks like in person, I’d say it gives off a very Sapphire look so
the nickname I’d go for is “Shimmering Sapphire” it looks stunning with that dial 
Okay, what would you nickname this one guys.... Grand Seiko SBGJ231
... this time, it's Japan market's turn. SBGJ231 will be launched in February, but ONLY at the SEIKO Premium Boutiques in Japan. Like many other conglomerate watch brands, if Seiko is leaning towards boutique sales/ revenue too much, I would be VERY disap...
Definitely a lovely piece!
That dial is simply superb, and the Hi-Beat 9S86 movement a great heart for it
Gotta agree with you. The question would be how to sneak into the Premium Boutique and make them believe that I am a Seiko fan....
.. as I have never been in one of them!
It is a beautiful watch with an incredible caliber.
I love my SBGJ021 !!! All the best my friends and Happy New Year!!!! Juan ...
Very nice, but...
The general impression I get is that the Grand Seiko brand is basically 99% about new dials on existing models and 1% reissues of historical models. It's a nice dial (even if I'm not a fan of the dial text, and the cases are far too bulky for me); but, as...
Of course, I know where your comment is coming from....
... I have the same feeling about RM, ALS, L(aurent) F(errier), VC, H(ublot), Z(enith), P(anerai) and many others. Oh, as for P, all the models are just so similar. Not that it is bad, but just my personal perception. After all, these derivatives of Seiko...
I see your point, and it's a fair one.
But there are also people who get excited by a minor change of font or color on the dial. Sometimes a small things makes a big difference (of course not for everyone). So these strategy of issuing boutique editions it's OK for me.
From the picture, I like the blue texture a lot
Maybe the indices look a little too fat for my liking, but hard to say unless I see it in the metal. GS has a habit of looking much better in real with the polishing and sharp hands.

Very nice
Am I the only one that worries that GS is taking Omega’s marketing approach with the same watches (speedy dark blue red yellow green side of the moon) watches? These are all nice but it’s really the same watch with a different dial!
This might be the spring edition
As you know we have winter (the white dial), autumn (burgundy dial), summer (green dial) and here possibly spring. I know the other three dial colours I’ve mentioned are inspired by the colour surrounding Mt Iwate.
Here is the Asia Ex-JP "Kasuri" in comparison
Happy New Year! This is the SBGJ225 LE250. The dial pattern takes inspiration from a weaving technique call Kasuri. On the wrist, the pattern is only visible to the wearer. It's an understated beauty. ...
