Not all GS are born the same
For the sub-$10k category.....Quite a big difference in hand finishing between sbgw231 vs sbgy003
The hands on top don't look too good...
...maybe they can't be seen with the eye, but it looks like grounds for a return.
Big difference indeed!
Although both are "sub-$10k" there is a considerable difference in price. Still, disappointing.

Interesting comparison -- obviously below average the finishing in the first picture, but very nice in the second one...would be excellent even at a much higher price point! ;-)

Interesting. I would love to see a similar comparison for the same model in steel vs precious metals.

A surprising difference
Despite wide price differences in GS watches, I would expect the finishing to be more similar. Especially disappointing since I'm considering adding the SBGW231, though I doubt this roughness would be visible to the nake eye.
it is good thing with better macros' now we're able to see the detail that eyes can't view - it shows the 'real value' as a consumer.
not to say right or wrong...but even some prestigious houses don't finish the bottom side of the hands !
that's on a 25k+ category I'm talking about...
Best,
mahesh.,
I’m wondering if this difference exists throughout the collection when comparing this two price points.
The SBGY003 is a watch I like a lot, but I’ve been waiting on different dials to be released. Size, case, simplicity are all there so hopefully we’ll see something else in terms of dial choice. I do like the gold versions but I won’t go beyond steel on this one.
I think there is some inconsistency
Like their quartz are cheaper and have better finished hands. Maybe due to different manufacturers for hands.
