Greetings fellow Grand Seiko lovers - glad to see there's a group of you here on Rolex Forums! Here's one of the classics, but on a leather NATO. Definitely gives it a different vibe:

Incredibly nice watches that surpass Rolex and Omega in case finishing as well as mechanics ...The precision and attention to detail is outstanding at their price point.

My 2 year old Grand Seiko

Here is my 2 year old Grand Seiko automatic.

Recently purchased a Limited Edition Hi Beat Grand Seiko will post some pictures soon.

I love their quality and attention to detail. Most of all, it doesn't stand out like a Rolex so I love the fact that it stays under the radar.

GS watches are so amazing. I finally went into an AD to look at them and boy was I impressed. I am buying a couple of pre-owned pieces which happen to be the 2 references that I can't decide between so I bought them both. Post pics when I received them. Can't wait!

Looks great. But why did they rotate the movement CW?

The 4 o'clock date + crown is a classic Seiko design cue.

Congrats! Two great pieces you have there. Those are exactly the two that I was trying to decide between as well, but I only ended up with one of them.
