Oh man, I might just 'have' to do it!
It just seems wrong, to buy one then buy another. But I 'need' an antimagnetic watch. It's just crazy NOT to have one. Obviously... Plus my hi-beat GMT might be lonely, sure it has a Swiss German and a Swiss Italian for company. However it's only countryman is the SRP777, and I'm sure they get along but the conversations might be a bit one sided (the SRP is a little more simple at heart) so perhaps it needs a true companion.
I'm personifying my watches to justify purchases now. I've reached the point of no return.
I am intrigued by it as well.
It\'s a tough call between Railmaster Tribute, Milgauss GV black dial and this one. For sure the Seiko is the most leftfield/cool/individualistic option, which I like. All the best, Alex
I was so excited about the LE Railmaster
But now that I\'ve had a good look at it online I\'m cold... I really like it and I think they\'ll be happy owners, but it doesn\'t sing to me. Then there\'s the price, I don\'t think it\'s necessarily too much it\'s just that the Seiko is so good and in ...
To play Devil's Advocate
Isn't it the opposite in a sense? GS is usually know for its eerily machine-perfect finish on elements especially the chunky hands and indices - especially up close with a macro lens Regards, skyeriding
That's what I like about it!
My understanding though is that the hands and indices are finished by hand on a variety of polishing wheels etc. I could be wrong, but this is the impression I\'m under. What is important though, to me, is the effect of the finish. The deign and style loo...
GS Hands
Yes, the hands are hand-finished (if that's not redundant). I have reported on this previously, and will post a separate thread with lots of photos. Cheers, Cazalea
Yes I thought so!
I\'m never too quick to dig my heals in on this forum though considering the wealth of knowledge and the fact that the internees is full of perpetuated myths. Thanks for the verification. This is what makes the Purists worthwhile!
I see your point on the Omega
I am massively torn between these three as well which makes the quest for a daily antimagnetic watch all the sweeter
I am now concerned, this model is no longer on the Seiko website...
Yes I\'m in the same boat! Exactly what I\'m after. Sinn make some compelling watches, however I feel they\'re not too stylish. Which is fine, they\'re genuine pieces of gear and I choose one in a heart beat if was to embark on some sort of expedition for...
I can see why! It's certainly got that cool look...
Going on. I hope you get it. Julian
Thank you!
I think it\'s plucked the heart strings sufficiently. No rush, it\'s a standard production model so I\'ll see about it in the future.
Not looking good
It\'s not on the Japan website, only the Aussie one, neither the global or US site as far as I can tell.
I only just got a new one!
Hopefully it\'s still available when I\'m ready... then I will succumb. I\'ve already bought it in my mind. I\'ve really caught the GS bug!
Easy to understand why you caught the GS bug. They are really nice
Best wishes Alkiro
It is a real gem :)
I really like the looks of their antimagnetic watches and this one is probably the coolest by far

Mine says hello to your watch, and to you
and he says "the trouble owning me is you never can take a quiet walk in the countryside, because you will always be looking at (and taking photo of) me!!!" Cazalea ...
I didn't do it, left it at the boutique after two visits.
Something about it just didn\'t make me do it.
