Sorry it’s not a Rolex....but I went in to my AD to check the status of a BB58 I had on order and ended up leaving with this little gem. Never been a GS guy but I couldn’t resist. Am curious to hear the Rolex guys’ opinions. SBGH387a will pair nicely with my AP15300 Patek 5167 BLNR and PAM1392.

I had maybe spent 2 minutes in the Seiko forums the last year and believe they are way under appreciated.

I think the GS is generally well respected, even among us Swiss watch snobs. That looks like a beautiful addition to your collection, congrats!

Beauty. GS is a good brand and I think getting more love with the Rolex SS "shortage." Enjoy it.

Thanks - know it’s wrong forum but really just interested in hearing the “Rolex guys” thoughts on GS and if others have paired the two in a collection.

Agreed what’s up with the Omega style bracelets? They make amazing watches though. That dial is stunning.
