I did . . .
. . . a bad thing.
Well, maybe not that bad.
But it was a case of instant lust.
The only hitch is that I have to wait a week for it to be delivered.
😛
Beautiful!
I remember you had said you'd be interested in getting a King Seiko in a similar color. This is, obviously, even better........ Cheers, Filip
Thanks, Filip! Seriously, I was about to get the KS . . .
. . . but when I saw this GS in the metal, all caution flew out the window.

........
SBGW001? . . .
. . . here's a photo taken fifteen years ago of Cazalea's . . .
. . . on my wrist.
Thanks for the update. I suppose SBGW231 is an update . . .
. . . on SBGW001 - is that correct, or are there significant differences other than dial print?
Curiously,
Art
Thanks for the info, Bobbe. I take it, though, that the case . . .
. . . is essentially identical, and that 231 is an update on 001. (Dial script aside, of course.)

If GS had asked me to design a watch, the outcome would've been . . .
. . . very close to this. I might've asked for a bit more brushing, but that's about it.

I don´t see any bad thing here my dear Art. Sometimes we should follow our whims I feel. You did so well.
I´m sure you will enjoy it so much. Well done!
I specially love the so clean dial with no inscriptions than brand name and logo. GS makes some wonderful watches.
Best, Abel.
Well, I'm buying a car soon, too, so maybe . . .
. . . I shouldn't have been so quick on the draw. But as they say, nothing ventured, nothing gained.

You did so well my friend. Enjoy it so much in the best of good health and with no regrets!! Cheers! Abel
GS 44's case design proliferates throughout . . .
. . . Grand Seiko's current production, but apparently not in this smaller 36.5 mm size. My recently departed SBGH 279 . . .
. . . is significantly larger, at least on my wrist.

A bad thing would have been not getting this charmer of a watch, Art!
It is just too good to pass!
Congrats and cheers to you, my friend!
Alex
Congrats and cheers to you, my friend!

Grazie, Alex! . . .
. . . this GS is right there with the Flightmaster . . .
. . . when it comes to pushing all my buttons.
Warmest,

Honduran rosewood and sycamore . . .
. . . with buffalo horn trim. The shaft . . .
. . . is bocote. And quite possibly the first bocote shaft ever made, anywhere.
