I have always admired the quality and finishing of GS and will one day own a snowflake dial. They are just stunning.

My pleasure. It's kind of a pity they skipped over King Seiko but the part about Grand Seiko having the seven most accurate mechanical movements in the world in the late 1960s was worth mentioning

Thanks for the post
I saw this too and did not know how fast the date adjusts on a GS quartz
I wish all watch review videos were this style with plenty of macro shots and nothing but watch photos.
Watch reviews that just feature a guy talking about a watch without watch photos and videos are the worst.
Note to watch reviewers on youtube: no one wants to see your mug
