Love this watch since it released last year but no luck to get from the AD / Boutique in my city as it’s only available for China market. Limited 182 pieces, no number 4 in the series (4 is sort of a unlucky number in China).

The dial was inspired by a Ukiyo-e (Japanese traditional painting) famous artist Hiroshige back in 1800.

A grey shop found a new stock, I paid deposit to reserve and rush to get it. Spring Drive 9R65 40mm Stainless Steel case is just perfect, can’t take my eyes off the beautiful dial. As usual for GS, photo doesn’t do it justice, the color looks different under various lighting condition.

the dial imprint looks more swirly and flowing than the Snowflake...And it's steel...

Dial pattern is nice. Seems like the pink one from the sbga413.

PBJ1925 · 12 September 2021, 01:03 PM

Wow, beautiful. Didn't even realize this reference even existed, stellar!

It’s the same texture of “Spring” of US exclusive 4 seasons series. It’s in light blue instead of cherry blossom’s pink.

Thanks! I almost gave up due to the very limited quantity, really lucky to find one :-)

And yes the texture is different than Snowflake, both are gorgeous dual.

Yes, I was on a business trip and tried the 4 seasons in the boutique in Florida. Almost pulled the trigger but was hoping that there will be a blue one.

I think I saw one last week or could this be a different model?

Edit: Just re-read everything and this one is China only. I'll try to go back, I remember seeing a blue one like this with a similar dial.

I think it was the SBGA407 but that dial isn't as nice as yours.

Yes actually there are plenty of blue dials, with different textures and effects

Glenmorangie77 · 22 September 2021, 11:07 AM

I've almost pulled the trigger on one of these myself over the past 6 months. But I've not seen one in person and am concerned that the dial is too passive unless in the sunlight. As demonstrated by the sunlight pictures here, it's stunning in bright light. But in artificial light, it looks washed out and flat. Is it that way in reality or just in the pictures?

Rolex Essex · 25 September 2021, 12:18 AM

What a stunner!
So beautiful.

Oyster Sauce · 25 September 2021, 02:09 AM

Congrats -- that is the best color for that dial texture that I've seen. Wear in good health

In fact, don’t really need sunlight to make it shines. The dial under indoor lights looks like pale light blue but people noticed it’s blue easily. Colleagues thought it’s an Rolex Oyster Perpetual Tiffany Blue from 2-3 meters away, but be honest the color is not as solid as the OP.

Here are 1 indoor and 1 outdoor wrist shots FYI

Jackie Daytona · 27 September 2021, 05:54 AM

Beautiful watch! Congratulations! I would love to see one of those in person. I’m waiting for the sbga413 to come in currently, but I think if I came across this model it would easily be that one.

Rrpdc · 28 September 2021, 05:47 AM

That’s a gorgeous watch but I scratching my head to see how that in any way resembles Tiffany blue

Cru Jones · 28 September 2021, 07:30 AM

Beauty of a watch, congrats. Nice pics.
