Icon7 Grand Seiko SBGA127

Hello, never been to this board quite long time. I just got a new GS historical collection - 55 years anniversary from a local dealer in Thailand. I don't know much about the watch but it is very comfortable and light.

More details of the watch from GS website ==> http://www.grand-seiko.com/collectio...hp?pid=SBGA127

Here is some pictures I took recently...

Lovely – congrats and enjoy.
That's one sight you'll never tire of looking at, especially the mesmerisingly smooth sweeping action of the seconds hand.
A pity Seiko always limit the production number of blue dial variants – they did the same with the lowly SARB045.

Something I like about GS is how there is no untidy hole at the centre of the handstack (on some models anyway)
