SBGJ201 incoming

Just...wow.

The arrival of this piece today was the first time I’d seen a Mt. Iwate dial in person and it did not disappoint! The 44gs case is stunning, and the Zaratsu polishing is impressive.

Huge fan so far.

Thanks, guys. I’m glad I went with this model in SS versus something in titanium...the dial’s very compelling, and it’s substantial on the wrist, but very comfortable. Cool watch.

Thanks guys...I’m really digging it so far! It was a breeze to size as well. I was slightly amazed at that - very tiny screws with inner pins, but was easy to do with some patience.

It sure is. Normally, I dislike cases with lots of shiny parts, but this one really sings to me, in combination with the dial and the finishing on the hands/markers. Such a cool piece!
