New Peacock!
Very excited to show off my new toy. The dial is lovely, as expected. However, I didn’t expect to be so impressed with the Zaratsu finishing.
This is my first Grand Seiko, and I am very impressed. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

Congratulations!
It’s a pity still photos can’t do justice to the glorious lively dial...

Nice! Congrats - maybe it’s me but it seems like the GS is getting more love by the day. I have SBGA387 and could easily add another GS. That one is sharp

The dial is amazing. How do you feel about the thickness of the case? I read it's 14.4m which is on the thicker side

There were a few comments about the Peacock is going to be available in the US on March 2020, do we have new confirmation of this ?

The model you're referring to is SBGJ235 https://www.grand-seiko.com/us-en/special/sbgj235/ It has been Japan only but is being released in US in March 2020. It's been confirmed |

New Peacock!

Yes it's not the exact same dial. Thought you were referring to this piece as I saw Ben referred to it as the blue peacock. https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=709642 The original green peacock was available in the US when it came out I'm pretty sure. |

I can’t recall the model# but pretty sure in the past there was a “blue peacock” in the non-US market . The 235 def looks different ... IMO even better and I can’t wait to see this in person in the spring . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

Old model was SBGJ231. The SBGJ235 is the new one (same dial) being released in US in March 2020. I confirmed with a local boutique and they said that's when they're getting them. Currently they have a prototype in store https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=595892 |
