Enjoying my first GS. The dial is amazing, not sure I can capture how the watch looks in real life as a whole. Lovely little nod back to my King Seiko in the dial.

Snowflake with blue canvas! I think this watch is much better suited on straps vs bracelet.

Change up from the Turtle which is hogging all my wrist time this summer (and for good reason).

Recycled pic... I hope Orient counts:

That dial is insane!! DSW has one and I’m trying so hard not to but it!

Can you please share more about that King Quartz?

Hey Adam,
It's not too bad.
It's decently comfy, and it's different enough.
Overall build quality is ok... I think the shroud is metal (stainless steel I guess).
Light for the digital display is cool.
Able to display dual time is handy.

However, a few nitpicks of mine:
1. The lugs... I wish it was more Tuna-ish as it wears quite big due to the long lugs.
2. The crowns... though never felt uncomfortable, I wish it was a tad smaller, esp it runs on battery and I don't think I will use them that much..but I think it's growing on me
3. Strap style is perfect, so is the buckle... but the keeper is way overkill for me... I swapped it out for a generic rubber one and problem solved.

All in all, I think it's cool, esp given the discounts I received from AD lady.

Great, thanks ... I think I'll get one, though possibly as a 'souvenir' on our next Japan visit
