Just arrived SBGJ021

This is not my watch. It's Michelle's. Kinnakeet who posts here. My wife actually! She bought this and it just arrived to Florida. I've owned all the hard to get Rolex. This blows them all away. It blows the Snowflake away. I cannot put this thing down. Congrats Michelle!!!IMG_0582.jpg

The thing about is pics don't do it justice. Under a 10x loupe it's perfection. Looks like hair actually.

I bought this cheap clip on lens from Amazon, would be nice to see that dial under a lens like this

That's a good shot. The movement on this one is very nicely colored and of course the finish is best of the best. It's limited to 500 pieces made. This one is 2xx/500.

Thank you guys;
Poor Art is probably wondering what next, as I’ve been on a Seiko/ GS “spree”;
Well I’ve got an excellent trilogy now.... Honey I’m done !!

That dial colour is interesting, I haven't seen that before, what do they call that colour?

Congrats

The colour is called “ Dawn on Mount Iwate”;
It’s an LE from 2016. I was very happy to find it, and I think it compliments my snowflake so well . Now I have a great watch from both GS studios.
