Many of us, being opinionated PuristS, tend to go on and on about "NO STINKING DATE WINDOWS" on our watches. After reading the umpteenth thread on this, as Moderator on this sub-Forum I have decided to take action. Herewith, the table of Grand Seiko model...  

that is purity... Best, mahesh.,

Thank you for this no date summary of the Grand Seikopedia! The hunt is on

Thank you for the compliment. Now I have to fix the one wrong image I found this evening ... Cazalea

Wish such overviews were available for other brands, too!

Impressive collection, Cazalea! and what a valuable catalogue that you share. Here\'s my SBGW005. I think they stop producing it. Has a second blue hand and I would say the dial is actually off white or even creamish depending on the lighting. Regards ...  

The color of the dial has proven very elusive and too varying to describe verbally, although "sort of white" is adequate. Cazalea ...  

The vociferous "No date" supporters are a tiny minority amongst PuristS and general watch owners. They just shout louder. Most owners have both date and dateless watches. I have no particular fixed view as the date display is compulsory in some circumstan... 

But I had to be provocative, as I was trying to get them to consider buying a Grand Seiko and there happen to be plenty of no-date models. Unlike the Seiko clock I am working on this morning. Cheers, Cazalea ...  

Impressive list Cazalea!!!! Thank you. There are atleast two watches from the photos above I want to start hunting for immediately. Such beautiful elegant dials you have in your collection.

With the 130th anniversary steel reference in particular catching my eye. Is there an existing list of manually wound GS available? Regards Ian

If you are asking for a spreadsheet similar to the no-date version, I can help you. These are the models I've catalogued with manual wind only movements, from Grand Seiko. Of course there are a few more from Credor. Mike Manual Winding GRAND SEIKO MODELS ... 

Thank you for your efforts.

Can I request an additional column for display back?

The file now lists about 400 Grand Seiko models. My guess is about 20-30% might have display backs, but I have no way of knowing that apart from researching each model again on the web, and looking for images of the back, or if very lucky, finding a text ... 

Just trying my luck. If I do start down that route I will be sure to note them down and pass it forward. Please keep up your good work, it's very much appreciated.

Thanks!!

Thank you very much...I enjoy reading it

Hi everybody, forgive me for reviving this post, but I just found it. I have several GS, including a SBGW035 and now looking to get a gold GS. So I was thinking SBGW038, but then remembered SBGW004. Similar yet very different watches. Which one do you lik... 

I had a chance to buy one of these about 10 years ago, but passed on it. My mistake... Cazalea ...  

Thank you!!
