Recently got a Jean Rousseau custom strap for the SBGY003. The blue brings out the color of the sweep seconds hand.

No, not at all. It's gorgeous! Brings a little moisture to my eye. You and Mike have me searching for a couple like you guys have.... Dang it! I was "trying" to reduce my collection. You and Mike are NOT helping!

It's quite the watch - size is great. My only "gripes" if you will, the notorious bracelet fit (I've taken out a link, added a half link, taken out a full link, now added another half link back in, and it's close to where I want it), and I wish there was just a bit more contrast b/w the second hand and the dial to watch it glide...guess I'll just need to get another higher contrast spring drive

LOL you've come to the wrong place to be talked OUT of purchasing a watch. We're all enablers around here.

Beautiful watch you got there Jimmy!

GS sbgn007 today.

Absolutely loving it at the moment. I still marvel at the quality vs $$$$ ratio!

SBGH037 FTW - Super versatile, lovely understated dial, and the 62GS case has just the right amount of bling.

Mike, It's a SBGX261, a little 37mm quartz (9F62) I wear to work in. May be picking up a SBGA375 midnight blue spring drive tomorrow. "fingers crossed"

Just when I think i'm out of watch collecting.... They pull me back in!

I have to give it to you Jimmy, I have never seen a band like that before. Nice match.

Oh man, I love that watch! Mike and I have been talking about it for like 4-5 weeks. Super underrated which might be what’s drawing me to it. It’s like a secret. Hope you get it, and we might be twins in short order. Seriously, I don’t know how it has escaped hype - so elegant in its simplicity for sure!

Can’t wait to see pics!!!
