Nah. It’s at the perfect price point for most people looking for something besides a Rolex OP.

I appreciate the info you provided on this one vs. the SBGW231. Good stuff that obviously I wasn't aware of in my previous comment.

No prob, happy to help. Sorry if I sounded snooty. Reading it back it may have come off that way.

I recently picked up the 007 as both my first GS and first “dress watch”. The spring drive sweep is truly mesmerizing to behold. It really does feel amazing on the wrist, though I wish the clasp had a bit slimmer profile, to match the slimness of the case.

In terms of my next GS, where should I go from here?
