Grand Seiko dial textures

I think the different dials that GS use are so interesting and really differentiate the brand. Anyone have a favorite they'd like to show off?

My personal favorite is the SBGH267G. If only it wasn't limited.

I agree. GS has some of the nicest and most interesting watch dials available at any price.

Here's a couple of pics of my limited edition SBGA419.

Found this article on the snowflake dial creation process. https://www.grand-seiko.com/us-en/sp...tories/vol8/1/

That feeling when you erroneously thought that the snowflake dial was just a piece of textured paper... Then your mind is blown by everything that goes into creating the dial...
