Grand Seiko SBGH335 Watches of Switzerland

[londonpilgrim]

Ordered this on Friday night thinking I might send it back if I didn’t completely love the dial.

It came the next morning. What do you think?

[Old Expat Beast]

I quite like it. Dial's got kind of an early 1960s Seikomatic vibe going on. Not sure I could live with it daily. If Rolex did something like that, though, everyone would go crazy for it.

I like the dial , but not in green.

[Cru Jones]

Love it!

[soldes]

Quite like it, nobody plays with dial colors like GS.

[Michael1968]

Nice

[Yobrooks]

Nice dial, I'd wear it in the warmer months.

I like it, a lot. Would I wear it daily? Well, I'm not sure. It's very eye catching. I can however see how it could fit in a nice collection and yes, it makes for a nice summer watch

I like it a lot. Great looking and one I am going to check out if mt AD gets it.

I pulled the trigger first day! It really does offer everything you would want in a watch. I live in Florida, so it's basically always summer here! Shall we call it the Key Lime?

[slamdoor]

In the dreary UK maybe the purple version…

This is my first GS and I am impressed by the whole package - the case shape, movement, dial. Class.

Indeed. This is my second piece from them. When the email came for the release of the watches of Switzerland version, I scanned through the features, and it pretty much covers. Everything being looked for in a watch IMO.

My other GS is an SLGA023 with the blue dial. Absolute stunner!

I’ll post some pictures up later.

Another thing about this green dial. The more I look at it the more I love it! That’s a great sign.

I like dial but not the green

[Gebbeth]

Which High Beat Movement does it have? The 9SA5 or an earlier version?

[trippinjimmy]

Love it!

The dial is quite unique, and some will like it and others won't. Regardless, the overall effect is wonderful. I've owned 2 GS models and they become more special with each wearing. The Zaratsu polishing captures every bit of light, and even in a dimmed concert hall the reflection is strong enough to read the time without any lume on the hands.

Not many people understand the Hi-Beat movement, a true 36,000 VPH masterpiece. The second hand glides majestically around the dial and is spectacular. I bought a GS Spring Drive movement for the constant motion sweep hand, and while the effect is magical, there is nothing better than a true mechanical Hi- Beat movement.

Enjoy the video of the movement: https://youtu.be/uXScB5mY6e0?si=RzHgNKehm2Mp21sU

Wear it in good health.

I’m with them. Great looking dial, that shade of green is not for the E

[PBJ1925]

Lovely dial, a bit bright.

[alllexandru]

Wow, that's nice, can you add more photos under natural light?

[Stevec14]

That’s really nice. They have all three of these in my WoS and they are stunning IMO.

I agree. I do really like the dial & like the darker green of the seconds hand. For me it feels like more of an occasional piece

True story.

[Andad]

Awesome.

[Loevhagen]

The WoS trio looks "cheap". There's just something wrong with the colours they chose. No refinement - just IN YOUR FACE!

Sorry.

[DoricSpiker]

I like it.

Wow I love it. It peaked my curiosity

[ap1]

Anyone have the purple or black? This is my favorite case they make

[brockytop]

Keep it!

[ap1]

Really great dials, not for everyone but I like. Green was my fav of the three.
