What I am more concern is that some Seiko watches are going upscale and features Grand Seiko movement and features like Springdrive and Zaratzu polishing in an attempt to justify higher prices. This kind of blur the two product line somewhat.

Having handled alot of ‘highend’ regular seikos, i really hope seiko becomes the sports/tool watch company while grand seiko becomes exclusively the dress and casual (heritage and elegance?)
That would push seiko upmarket, differentiate the two brands
All this prospex, presrage, astron, lx etc etc is just too confusing and is starting to overlap with grand seiko. For grand seiko, lets face it, they dont do great sports models, and seiko is in a better position with being able to leverage their history in this area
