Grand Seiko SBGE255 | This or the Explorer?

[@pedromolina7737]

Wanted a GS Spring Drive watch and the blue dial and bezel got me hooked. Wished it was thinner but not a deal breaker. I paid $4,750 for mine so that was the deal maker.

[@PhilandWatches]

Man, yeah thats a fantastic deal. Good find man`

[@nilpatel9096]

Where'd u get it for that price?

[@davidhalesmith2491]

Date is at 4 o’clock which is a signature of many other Seiko and GS divers and sport watches. In line with crown at same position so it doesn’t dig into your wrist. Further differentiating it from all the other sport and dress GMTs out there. Love my SBGE257 (the green one ;-) Nice review.

Sorry, I found the music too much of a distraction and ended up turning the video off midway through.

[@strider9381]

Good content! I got my first GS this week and didn't pick this model due to the thickness... (and also the price tag - it's so much cheaper to buy a GS used a couple of years after the release). Got a little tip for you: It might just be me, but the music in the video seemed really loud, sometimes louder than your lovely voice, which made it a bit more difficult to understand you. Maybe you should reduce the volume of the music whenever you speak, and slightly increase it again whenever you just show pictures/videos of the watches. To make it even better, you could listen to the soundtrack a few times before and figure out one or two 10-20 seconds long parts that sound good for themselves - thats where you just want to play the music and shut up. I feel like this could add more quality to your videos and help your channel grow a bit faster. Keep up the good work!

[@PhilandWatches]

Really appreciate the tip! Will definitely work on that! Thanks

My grail is a 16570, that might not be attainable as soon as I thought...so SBGE255 is my next conquest

[@Hollyrock712]

Just got the GS green dial … also have the Snowflake. Three 9F Quartz… two GMTs… think I like GS ? 😀

[@Hollyrock712]

I also own the Rolex Explorer ll . GS all day

[@TheBushBrown]

How do you like the green dial? It looked great in the store but I worried about growing tired of it, especially as my daily. Thoughts?

[@Hollyrock712]

@@TheBushBrown the green dial is mesmerizing… the videos don’t do it justice… Believe me, you won’t get tired of this one.

Should I buy mine in Japan??

[@mikep197]

Nice review. My only real complaint on this watch is the lack of a rotating bezel. Other than that it's a fantastic watch. Also agree with another reviewer to turn down the music volume. It overwhelms your voice.

[@Gumby56]

Spring drive over everything else.

[@aaroncunningham6756]

I enjoy my NOMOS Glashütte Tangomat GMT, however, I wish their bracelets were as good as their designs.

[@VanceEllis]

Keep up the good work, Phil!! How’s the OP treating you these days? Haven’t seen it make a cameo in bit!

[@PhilandWatches]

Hey Vance, thanks for the continue support man! OP definitely in the core collection, trying to give other watches time on the wrist for reviews haha.

[@manishsoni1695]

Very nice review. Hoping you're enjoying the Tudor Advisor too :D

[@PhilandWatches]

Definitely am, haha hopefully do a vid on that one soon! kinda busy lately!

[@leandroleporatti7657]

Well,nice watch...but I like very much the Eterna Legacy GMT manufactur IN HOUSE MOVEMENT.What di you think about?Nice video as usual pal!🔝

[@PhilandWatches]

Oh my, that wasnt on the radar. I love the white dial on that. Might be a little more dreasy for me though haha.

[@juniorjr5328]
