Thank you for the quality of the information and the relevance of your analyses. One of my favorite YT channels now on watches subject. A small detail to further improve the quality : the noise of the air conditioner present for a few episodes is now overtaken by the snoring of the little dog ;) Happy vacations :)

I can vouch for the 9RA2 accuracy. Have owned the SLGA021 for over a year now and i tested it for a month straight on wrist and it lost -0.5 second in that whole month of use. Now it is part of a watch rotation and every time i wear it i check the deviation the next day and it is 0.0 seconds every time. I love this movement.

The Watch community is one big fckin echo chamber. If someone doesn't like something, suddenly everyone doesn't like it. If you haven't figured it out yet. Marinemaster is now a line. The 200m that seems generic to you for whatever reasons is now the 200MM. And the new 300m is 300 MM. And they both look amazing. Best watches for the money by far.
@stevens10414 ай бұрын
Let me add my take: I collect marine masters. I really appreciate the monoblock design, so to me, while the new watches are certainly interesting and probably great quality, I'm hoping Seiko brings back the monoblock case design.

Not sure it's quite fair to compare prices of 50 year old Grand Seiko GS45 with that of a new re-creation with a modern movement, much longer power reserve, etc., which one would not need to baby. I do agree the price is on the high end.

Tag on a roll once again 😊 the skeleton dial works for me. However, I totally agree with the bezel... stainless steel would have worked a little better with the pop of colour. That Alpina is giving of a whif of hublot to say the least... not for me, but the dimensions in regards to the thickness are great. Breitling seems to be on a resurgence lately, and this watch looks great with the new colours and details for the NFL. Now...that seiko is a stunner! Its just a shame that when Seiko give, they also take away. The GS hmmm, I can take them or leave them...dial is stunning sure, but they just seem a little boring, same style bracelwt,case etc etc Awesome video as usual btw 😊

@@igorcicala7 i get where you're coming from, we each have our tastes. And seiko does offer no date watches but very seldom and i think the reasoning behind that is they have to cater to the customers' demands and i believe more customers like date on their watches. As a business, it would make sense for them to give the majority what they want and thereby sell more watches.

8:25 I read somewhere 2 or so years ago when i got my SPB313 that now it's required to get all markers as full size+full lume to meet refreshed ISO (or DIN?) standard, that's why now dates are on "elevated" 6 or 4.5. But don't quote me on that and re-verify, because i am to lazy to look for a source and we all know how human memory works ;D

I hate Tag Heuer, except with a few good-quality exceptions and not overpriced garbage. I had one in the late 1990s, and it just kept breaking. I think Breitling is far superior in quality, and on the used market, you can get some good deals. I think Grand Seiko keeps getting better. The ones you talked about are very expensive but there are much less expensive models but the quality is amazing. I do not like the giant price increases. I don't have any but I have a friend who is able to find them for a decent price used from Japan. His daughter lives in Japan.

GS are losing their minds. Those prices are insane for those watches. 36mm would have been better too but that's besides the point. I suppose these are for the die hard GS fans who love being ripped off. Their dials are getting really boring just the same thing recoloured over and over, they need to iterate on the actual ergonomics of their watches. Bracelets and clasps are not good. They cases need to be thinner and smaller... etc etc.

What's the issue, if you want the old monobloc case, just buy the SLA021. I don't see this watch as a new 'MM300' but rather an evolution of this case which has already been used in the GMT and limited edition models.
