Incoming - Grand Seiko SBGR305

Just bought this over the weekend. Such as gorgeous piece especially for the price. LE 968pcs in Titanium. Immaculately finished on the case and dial. My 3rd GS.




A group shot with my SBGA103

Congratulations. I have read a lot of articles on this watch since it was released. It's nice.
I love how they have gone to the single Grand Seiko logo at 12 o'clock. I think it's much cleaner.
