Sbgp005 & sbgv239

Am I missing something or are these two models essentially identical? It looks like one has a jump hour function on the movement and the blue dials are slightly different.

Is the SBGP005 supposed to replace the SBGV239 and they are just both available right now while SBGV239 runs out of inventory?

You're referring to the SBGP005? (your other link was to the sports model N005) https://www.grand-seiko.com/us-en/collections/sbgp005g

I don't think you're missing anything. They're very similar as you've described. I like the teal blue of the V239 but prefer the newer movement with jump hour function.

One is a GMT and the other is not.
