As Alkiro was asking about Tokyo stripes - let’s find some examples!
In my thread on the SCVL002 yesterday (here: www.watchprosite.com for more) I mentioned Tokyo stripes and had a very curious Alkiro as a result So here a better picture, from my Grand Seiko SBGH035. Any examples you can add to this? Let’s help out...
Grand Seiko movements are a delight to view dear KM!! ...
... here a picture of the back of my SBGJ021 Ltd edition of their GMT high beat model of 2016. The awesome anodized full rotor leaves little space to fully appreciate the finish of its fine movement but it gives a hint anyway. Cheers! Abel ...
Thanks a lot for this wonderful shot, Abel!
Much obliged and a great addition to the theme
Pleasure is mine :)
Would love to see yours live at some point, Abel! Great piece, front and back
Thank you again dear KM! I’d love to show you mine in person...
... and have the pleasure of meeting you! May be some day we can make it! A couple of shots in the meantime! All the best! Abel ...
Thank you for your good wishes dear Alkiro!. This watch was bought during my visit to NY Seiko Boutique last March...
... and is my first GS (though I own a couple of Seiko watches) and I´m delighted with it as well as with the great attention received at the Boutique. Thank you again! Abel
Absolutely!
Depending on the watch model, there are several different such rotors in use 👍🏻
Well...
When it comes to details like these Mike or Ken are best suited to give an answer And to expand your knowledge base of Japanese watches
Tokyo Stripes, Illustrated
Lest I infringe on anyone's preferences, I will not comment on whether Swiss or Japanese stripes are deeper, wider, stripier, more angled or whatsoever. But I can give you some images and examples. These are all my watches, and my photos - but not origina...
I knew you would provide a good selection, Mike :)
And was most certainly not wrong. Some truly amazing ones, too!
Some examples of the tokyo stripes from my credor
Still enjoying this watch Dial side HAGWE best henry ...
Thanks a lot for adding these!
Looking quite interesting. How large is your Credor? Looking larger than the standard Seiko size
it looks large because of the thin bezel and the angle the photo was shot.
It's actually 36 mm minus the crown. best henry
