Incoming...another Japanese
Was very excited today as I finally fulfilled my desire to own one of these great timepieces from Seiko. Enter the GS SBGR083. Limited to 700 pieces, which makes it just a tiny bit more special. It is hard to explain, but you really have to have one of these in your hands with a 5x magnifying loupe to really appreciate the details and the beauty of this watch. Simple, elegant, classy and at the same time understated.

The sharp angles on the lugs are a nice contrast to an otherwise very classic dial.

Very nice! I've been to the Seiko boutique in NYC a few times. They really are great watches.
