Nice- looks exactly the same as the limited sbgn009 except for the dial and color of gmt hand. I had the chance to try it on a few weeks ago, and it felt nice on the wrist.

Old thread, I realize, but I just saw these two Grand Seiko GMTs at the GS Boutique in NYC (Soho).
These are stunning, especially the champagne dial (SBGN011). It is not a silver dial. It is a vintage-looking champagne that's so beautiful. But the thing that blew me away is that there's a great optical effect that is not apparent in the photos: It's one of the few GS models that has what is described as a "dual curved" crystal and it gives the watch a funky depth at angle that is super cool and retro, almost like a domed acrylic crystal. Very unique, and none of the other GS models I looked at (about a dozen, including quartz and high beats) had this same effect. Also loved the blue steel GMT hand, understated case shape that wears as a true 40mm, and the all-brushed bracelet. I don't own any GS models (yet) and I'm not a big fan of quartz (yet), but I was very impressed. At $3K retail, seemed like a lot of bang for the buck. |
