more of the same?

[dchang81]

i've had a golden snowflake sbga059 for a few years. i love it, id have preferred the 011 but got this one for cheap. anyways was looking at the four seasons, the light blue snowflake etc. my concern is do they feel redundant? i love the textures and wish more companies did interesting dial finishes. part of the reason why i always look at mosers but sadly havent quite pulled the trigger on those. id love it if they did something with a diver.

Moser has a diver, like a 50 piece run

I was more wondering if those with the 4 seasons and snowflake or blue snowflake find them redundant, or different enough to have both

I contemplate the same question myself. I have the SBGA011 and had the SBGA413 for a brief period of time, and after letting it go, I missed it. Now I have the SBGA415 that I'm on the fence on, waffling between ripping off the stickers and wearing it vs letting it go.

Either way though, I think they are quite different since they have very different case shapes. I really like the 62GS case of the 4 seasons, an improvement IMO over the Snowflake's case.

To each their own though, each time I show my significant other a new piece I just got, she'll just say "They all look the same to me." My personal conclusion is that as long as I'm happy with what I am collecting, that's what matters. Redundancy is a wide spectrum. Having a watch collection can be redundant since why have more than 1 watch? Or even having 1 watch may be redundant since we can check time on our phones these days. But many of us are in this hobby because of an appreciation for something else that a fine watch brings.

Yea for me I don't know what other brand had the finishing and dials of grand Seiko for 5-6k.

[Pongster]

Yup. If i did not have other GS might have been tempted to take all four seasons.

youll only really know if you go try them on. pictures dont tell the full story. i would think those two would be redundant if youre looking for a diver
