Grand Seiko and Credor

Credor is the domestic version of GS: they use the same movements. Stylistically they differ.

Just took a quick glance and lot of errors in the article. Credor is not domestic version of GS at all even though they share movements. Secondly this line "Today, Spring Drive is a technology that is exclusive to Seiko and is used only in the Grand Seiko and Credor lines." is incorrect as well. Even Seiko has Spring Drive technology and not exclusive to GS or Credor. Few examples..

GS is already a 'domestic' brand in that it offers more models on the domestic market than overseas.

Which watches are they?
article was interesting though like previous poster said, not wholly accurate from what I have read in other sources.
