Thank you for the great review. I have the Winter and love it. I really benefitted from seeing the watch on different bands. The blue band really set off the second hand. This is a great watch and I never get tired of wearing it.

[@462410doctor]

Thank you for your detailed and honest reviews on so many different watches; your channel truly is a hidden gem for watch enthusiasts! Most of all, I really value and appreciate your modest, grateful and kind approach to the watches and us as your viewers. Never change man, keep it up!

[@engineer_wannabe]

Thank you very much for your kind words, my friend!

[@HumainXVII]

Thank you very much for taking the time of doing all the shots with different straps on ! It's gives an idea of how versatile this watch is !

[@RC-ox9yx]

Great review, and the blue strap accents the tempered blue second hand, perfectly!

[@brett2396]

The Spring is probably my favorite GS and my grail piece at the moment. It’s so beautiful! If it were 38mm I probably would trade both my Tudors for it.

[@kunalkunde7744]

Infinitely valuable and infinitely precious review.

[@juanreyes7992]

Thanks Sanjay! I like very much that 62GS case, the “rainy cloud”’color and texture, and the blue seconds hand. 👌🏾

[@engineer_wannabe]

Hey Juan, Thanks for watching! Yeah GS did a lot right with this watch 🙂

[@allydea]

Probably my next (last?) watch. Thanks for the video, it addressed some things for me that were missed by other reviews!

[@slowbluesmaster]

The watch is awesome, but on those well-chosen straps it's elevated to EPIC status!

[@MatthewL02]

Recent subscriber here, your videos are amazing Sanjay! Thank you for the quality content!

[@engineer_wannabe]

Hey Matthew, thank you very much! You are far too kind!

[@lukemiller3221]

Great video! I've watched countless videos on this watch and this is the best one yet!

[@rickfowler3710]

looks killer on the blue leather. I wish they'd gone with a dome crystal

[@timelesssneakersandwatches]

Love the seasons collection from GS. Awesome video bud!

[@engineer_wannabe]

Thanks so much Omar, you are too kind!

[@browny2688]

Great review Sanjay! Glad you mentioned the winding sound/feel being a little rough. Took me a little while to get used to it but I ended up enjoying it as something different. Beautiful watch!

[@engineer_wannabe]

Thanks so much for watching, Browny! I still cringe a bit when I wind it 😅

[@watchsixto]

A true beauty that Grand Seiko offers

[@engineer_wannabe]

It really is! 🙌

[@ryantinney]

Truly appreciate all you do.

[@engineer_wannabe]

Thanks so much, Ryan!

[@J-tu3hw]

Blue strap is gorgeous. Nice pick!

[@simonwright6882]

I love my 415. The only thing I would change is female end links and some micro adjustment.

[@engineer_wannabe]

Those changes would significantly improve the watch! Thanks for watching, Simon!

[@nidhishshivashankar4885]

Saw the thumbnail and that strap face combo is just delicious 🤤🤤😍

[@twainwhitmore3448]

My favourite is the spring edition. But I love them all.

[@watchdogpodcast239]

Nice to see a review!! Your strap game is on point as always haha. Beautiful watch

[@engineer_wannabe]

Haha thanks Clayton! Looking forward to chatting!

[@defenstrator4660]

Very nice. A great alternative to the “Snowflake”.

[@scotthayes2652]

Stunning watch from all angles. Great review too 👍🏻

[@engineer_wannabe]

Thanks so much Scott! Hope you are well!

[@dutchberry]

beautiful watch! I want one

[@gagsy100]

Beautiful 🤩

[@TristanM-il2dp]

Sanjay, great review. I am glad i found your channel and that you show this watch on numerous straps in the review. Makes for a unique and informative take! Speaking of straps, i see you have a deluge number on there. What is the blue strap and have you any other recomendations on 21mm as i am in the process of getting this watch. Thanks in advance

[@lmadigan1971]

my favourite watch comfort perfect

[@9thARRU]

What's your wrist measurement? And perhaps more importantly, how wide is the top of your wrist? Seems about the same length as the end link to end link dimension but wanted to verify.

[@bahnfire]

While I would love to add the Winter to the collection, it’s too similar to the Spring I already have. They give off completely differently vibes in person, but still. I’m hoping for an updated Snowflake with all the improvements GS has made in a few short years.

[@Nefville]

This is one of my favorite GS. Its already in the trunk isn't it? Bye bye Winter 👋👋

[@engineer_wannabe]

Haha noooo!

[@julianread1996]

A rare hand finished work of art that will increase in value over time.

[@chazfromtheburg]

Beautiful watch and excellent review!

[@engineer_wannabe]

Thanks so much, as always, Chaz!

[@link4444swords]

What strap is that reddish brown one at 2:08? It's absolutely gorgeous with your Taisetsu.

[@lmadigan1971]

One of the best

[@stevewilkinson8495]

Hi , great video . Where did you get the leather straps from ?

[@dibtojyoti10]

Excellent review, sanjay

[@engineer_wannabe]

Thanks so much Dib! 🙌😀

[@Muralidharpatnam1]

Beautiful watch. I got it 2 months ago and love wearing it. Please give the link to the blue strap.

[@engineer_wannabe]

Hey Murali, Congrats! The strap is a Delugs Epsom strap 🙂

[@davidgant6720]

Thank you. I was about to ask the same question!

[@bobdenton1]

Subscribed to your channel, I love 💗 watches. When I was about 5, Dad bought a Seiko Sportsmatic 5 in Japan 🇯🇵. Although my relationship with the brand is a bit love ❤️-hate, I almost can’t count theirs that I own/have on one ☝️ hand 🖐. Extremely kind is how you seem. If someone is making you question how likable you might be, total shame on them!

[@rcorser1]

Great video. Will you please let us know the strap brands and links (where to buy)? I really like the models/color straps you have chosen. Thank you!!

[@engineer_wannabe]

Hey there, thanks so much for watching! I but most of my straps from Delugs. I really enjoy their craftsmanship and their stock short size works perfectly for me. The blue on is an epsom strap, Grey is a goatskin strap (but I recommend getting the grey epsom instead) and the reddish brown is a Chromexcel 👍

[@DA_Karas]

Hey Sanjay! Can you tell me who makes that noue strap? I just got the SBGJ261 blue peacock and am looking for strap ideas.

[@Kevinx3]

I do not enjoy the spring drive winding sound. Thanks for sharing the 415!

[@engineer_wannabe]

Haha Agreed, thanks so much Kevin! Hope you’re well!

[@davidgant6720]

I kinda like it

[@shaq6772]

What if u put it on a rubber strap ?

[@votoms888]

Where did you get the straps?

[@WeibenWang]

Congrats that the Seasons Collection isn't a US exclusive anymore.😇Shunbun Taisetsu smackdown! I'm partial to my SBGA413, of course. I agree with most everything you say. I don't however find it top heavy. I really like the titanium; I don't get people who say it's too light. I also have no problem with the power reserve indicator. Symmetry is overrated. I haven't been able to find a strap that I like with the Shunbun, but then I like the bracelet, so just as well.

[@engineer_wannabe]

Thanks so much for watching Weiben! The Spring is beautiful! I totally understand where you’re coming from 🙂 I meant that the watch could have been a bit better balanced. But a very minor detail. I’ll go into it a bit more in my next video comparing this to the Summer. Always appreciate your input, my friend! Hope you’ve had a great day!

[@EverydayWatchGuy]

Great looking watch! Even with the 13cm thickness (at 3:27 mark, lol).

[@engineer_wannabe]

Ooooops haha 😅 Thanks Toran!
