A big thank you to Adam for the smooth transaction. Even a world away, he responded within minutes. I couldn’t be happier with the watch. Thank you, sir!

Anyone who has seen my recent KS vintage posts, it’s been quite the misadventure. This is a great way to finish off the month long saga.

I wanted to dabble in GS and in a high quality quartz. I also wanted to add a day-date function to the collection. This seemed like the logical choice. Falling into this piece was just great timing.

Thank you everyone, and thanks again Adam! Didn't even have to remove any links, like a glove.

I still have the newer SBGT235, which is the same watch as Rob's 035 but with only GS on the dial, no SEIKO. I actually prefer the look of the 035, but the 235 has sentimental value (i.e. the wife bought it for me) and I had to let one go.
