New GS SBGK005

New SBGK005 dropped in and the blue is STUNNING! GS always has a way with their dials. what do you think? Might be a new dress piece for me.

Nice! The dial finish reminds me of GO Sixties?

Got one on order. It looks amazing and looking very forward to it. I was reading some review/watching some videos on the way it sits on wrists....probably would wear thinner than advertised with that shape IMO.

It looks awesome. However, I am not a big fan of power reserve indicator on the dial...

I love everything about it except the location of the power reserve and small seconds - bugs me to the point that I won’t consider it.

It bugged me when I first saw it but it is flat on the dial so it is as subtle as can be. I am sure these will be hot pieces with our clients.

Leather band looks more shiny than the pics online. Think I prefer the regular blue but like that dial a lot.

I went and tried this on today, and I have to say that it is really awesome. It wears small for sure and nothing like any other Grand Seiko I’ve tried. The domed crystal is a really nice touch. Makes it a little more classy

It looks like they went directly after GO and took the head off of the sixties series.
