Watches - another OCD problem

[grandmasterben]

Thanks quoise! Yeah honestly it seems like grand seikos would be up everyone's alley here, made I Japan and supposed to be an incredible deal for the finishing. Anyone that has one seems to think its at least as good as much more expensive brands - Rolex, etc.

Also love the design in the one I've posted, I even like the repetitive grand seiko… Reminds me of flat head!

That watch looks great too, ever thought of the snowflake?

There's a GS AD near me, I really need to go check it out and take some pics!

GMB, I'd go 2 different watch faces when you get to it. 1 white, 1 something else. Gives more variety to the mix.

I have owned numerous Rolex and my Snowflake schools them in fit and finish. One of the finest watches I've had the pleasure of owning.

Also wanted to throw in that my GS is stealthy. Only people who know watches recognize it. This is the opposite of the high polish Breitling or yellow gold President. Personally I like that.

I'm pretty certain that my tastes are becoming increasingly obtuse, but I rather like the Grand Seiko quartz watches.

The picture's stolen from a piece on Grand Seiko at aBlogToWatch.

Get over it..Graeme….

I respect your enthusiasm and knowledge, Graeme.  I also think you have a great, quirky aesthetic sense.  So if you like GS quartz watches, I say go with it.  You could hardly find quartz watches more worthy of respect, that's for certain.

I'm with you 100% on this one. Really superb.

Anyone here ever messed with Zenith watches? I could see the Elite Captain Central Second appealing to those who dig Grand Seiko. I'm a big fan of the El Primero Striking 10th as well.

A recent purchase of mine: vintage Tudor Sub with faded "ghost bezel" (bought from original owner with papers  )

Very nice Snowflake!

[Sugar Mountain]

Really nice Qinhan! Your second Tudor sub now?

[Qinhan]

Indeed, although I'm now looking to move the first one.  If anyone is interested in purchasing, feel free to pm me for details.

Damn…..Now, I want one of these.....

I own this SEIKO SKA617 P1 Kinetic for the 'daily business' … a very solid and smart companion .. and based on the kinetic feature, you need no batteries ...

Thx for the inspiration for this nice watch @Finn666 

[Finn666]

^  keep it up! … a brilliant watch!! 

[Anesthetist]

Qinhan, maybe this guy is your Tudor's bro!

[Qinhan]

That's the mini-sub!  I've always been partial to the snowflakes.
