    Everyone complains about the current bracelet options; needs more taper and microadjusts. Why isn't this being addressed? Can y'all please introduce a new, refined bracelet, please?

      Compared to rolex the bracelets feels jingly and not as refined. Also the tapering must be adressed! We need similar tapering as rolex

      ⁠@@milosmilosmilos- it’s a very elegant way to power a watch. They can be quite beautiful without the rotor in the way obscuring much of the movement, unless you simply like looking at rotors.
      Manual movements allow for a slimmer, often better proportioned watch. Grand Seiko’s aesthetic in my opinion often benefits form a slimmer movement which in turn allows for a slimmer case with better visual balance.
      Winding a watch is a pleasurable thing, even autos, if they aren’t worn regularly and actively, particularly with extended reserves, they still require relatively regular winding.
      Manual wound watches are for those in the know, or at least a lot of those in the know.

    The same way Seiko has been slowly bridging the gap to Grand Seiko these new GS Movements are slowly getting closer to Credor standards. Give the 9R31 the Credor Flower Motif on the Spring Barrel and you'd fool most casuals. This new 9SA4 is also a step in the Credor direction. Just gorgeous. Plus the new Titanium & Steel alloys are great ideas for a mirror polished watch.
    All I want from GS is for them to make a new optional bracelet with Micro Adjust, Tapering and Rolex weight/feel to finally shut up the people who are like 'I love basically everything about the GS but because Redditors and pedantic Reviewers say that Micro Adjust and Tapering are incredibly important I just can't bring myself to buy a GS. If only my wrist wasn't so incredibly sensitive to that extra 2-3mm of space between it and the bracelet due to the lack of Micro Adjust. And IF ONLY I could stop obsessively thinking about and looking at the underside of my wrist to check that the bracelet does indeed taper THEN I'd be able to enjoy owning a Grand Seiko. But as it stands because it doesn't use an identical Rolex bracelet I just can't bring myself to get one... Even though GS beats Rolex in terms of movement, tech, dial, case, finishing, availability and price the Micro Adjust and Tapering issues are insurmountable issues for me...'
