Icon5 Diving into GS Quartz. Need help with ref#s to consider

Was up late looking and it’s a mess of info.

I’d like blue, but will take black.

I’d like a date.

Anyone have a ref# or era to recommend? I’m going used.


Thank you

You can’t get it used. It’ll be released in Nov. But it ticks majority or all of your boxes.

SBGN025

This must be a variant of the current one. Thank you for sharing.

If looking for something sporty I don’t think there’s a cooler blue dial than on the SBGN021. It looks incredible in person, wears well, and can be imported from Japanese websites at a decent discount.

I just purchased a SBGN003 which has a black dial. It will be here tomorrow. There is also the SBGN005-same watch but with dark blue dial. Looking forward to mine-it will be my new under the radar travel watch.

the SBGV243.. really cool color scheme.

one of their coolest looking case designs, which is exclusive to the quartz / 9f lineup

Still looking. Might even go retro.
