    Man, this is a tough one! This is an absolutely beautiful watch! I like so much about this watch, especially that it's made of Titanium but that price, ouch! I just can't bring myself to spend $11,000 on it.

    Great review. I actually went into Exquisite Timepieces today expecting to walk out with the white birch high beat. After another look in the case I saw this one… amazing on wrist. Incredible dial. And like you said details that are hard to find in the price point.
    Great review!

    Hope this checks the box for a lot of folks/collectors and its enjoyed, because it is very neat from the technical viewpoint. However, I think the market for this might be very niche.

    GS is one of my favorites and I appreciate the flex and innovation. I don't don't mind the dial, and the movement is great...those pushers and crown though are horribly designed. Not only too long but they look uncomfortable. Surprised those were approved and pushed through.

    What on Mt Fuji was Seiko thinking when it designed those pushers??? Way too big by a long shot on what is otherwise a beautiful watch. Oh well, not really my problem as I don't have $11,000 to spend on a watch.

    Pushers and crown too long and ugly.
    Pretty sure the bracelet is not quick adjustable (deal breaker as with most Seikos)

    I’ve never fallen in love with any GS. I think it’s the case shapes and the bracelets. They have beautiful dials
    Now I love chronographs. I have 7!! This checks all the boxes for me…Minus those pushers!! They are way too damn big

    Amazing. So much innovation, quality and attention to detail. I like the way the gmt hand shaft is camouflaged against the dial. Easily wort 11k - if you've got it.

    Definitely not for me. Those pushers and crown look like my 7 year old grand son designed them. 16.5 thickness for an 11,000 is absurd. Someone will fork over $11,000.00 dollars for it because it says Grand Seiko. I'm not that impressed with those 2 words.

    Beautiful watch. Another item I can't afford. If I ever hit the Powerball, my watch collection would largely consist of Grand Seiko's. Thing about watches is, as crazy as $11,000 is for a watch, I regularly come across brands I've never even heard of, that sell for $50,000 (or more).
    Subscribed.......on the strength of you mentioning the price......RIGHT up front. Seems most channels either don't mention it, or bury it 11 minutes into the video.

    Normally I love Grand Seiko watches, but the pushers on this are nuts. It would make more sense to me if they were on the top like a bullhead. Call it the Hanya. At least that would make sense as art. This is just bizarre. A well done, awesomely executed uncomfortable strange unit…

    • @Pete...NoNotThatOne
      @Pete...NoNotThatOne Рік тому +1

      I’ve tried on a GS with these pushers, and they actually don’t dig in at all on my 7.5 inch wrist. They look weird, but they are fit for purpose, though it’s a pain to unscrew them every time you want to use the chrono. But then, a certain Rolex has the same issue. About your bullhead idea - I would absolutely sell a kidney to get a GS bullhead! Somebody’s kidney, anyway…

    If I wanted a torture device, to dig deep into the back of my hand when I bend my wrist, I can get one for far less than 11 grand.
    Man that looks uncomfortable.

    You can read the watch with no problem when you’re reviewing it on TV with the zoom. In real life, you need to have a magnifying glass. There are so many lines on that watch to try to read. That’s the total I paid for my 2018 sportster iron 883 including tax and delivery back in 2018. That’s a lot of money for that watch.
