Wearing my Grand Seiko SLGA023 Ushio now. Really enjoying it. It it is a great, great combination of form and function. It is a very large watch and realistically won’t ‘work’ for someone with a wrist

Wearing my SLGA019 “Lake Suwa” The third version…🙈🤪 But I truly love it! Got it a few weeks ago and it’s been such a pleasure to own. I love how dynamic the dial is throughout the day.

It’s amazing and changing the color to that blue makes it much more attractive to me. My only gripe with it is the size. It needs to be 2mm smaller in every dimension
@epicv7dayz824 Жыл бұрын
Got to admit, that I much prefer GS in a dressy styling than diver. It’s juxtaposed to what a tool diver should embody. Just my humble observation

Great review Chris. Love this blue version. I was wearing my OMEGA CK859 but after watching this vid it has inspired me to do an "#AfterHoursWatchSwap" (-; to my SEIKO SNR029. Because it too is titanium and has a spring drive. Chris is the SNR029 built in the same location as the SLGA023, Shinshu or Shizukuishi?
@Littletreasury Жыл бұрын
Hi Rey, both are made in the Shizukuishi factory. Great question!

I’ve never been at all attracted to GS Divers before, a bit dull compared to the rest of the GS offering and with cases that are either dull or absolutely colossal. These Evo 9 pieces are really getting appealing though, reasonable size, interesting dial texture, aggressive looks. Just a shame the price has gone up as much as it has.
@AleksanderHoff Жыл бұрын
5 days spring drive does that. They are really stepping up the game.. but that does affect the price.
@manfred2434Ай бұрын
Spring Drive indicator is only "printed" and not 3D-engraved!

Fantastic movement, reasonable size. However, the cathedral hour hand kills it for me. That and the lack of more interesting color options. If it was green I could see it as a worth companion to my black Omega PO. Oh, and the power reserve indicator is really nice! Seiko, don't listen to the others, I like it, should stay on the dial.
@briankenny68836 ай бұрын
The hands provide great readability, particularly in combination with the luminance. They made every effort to combine form and function in this watch and it shows. Agree on the power reserve,…it is really nice and adds a lot to a beautiful dial.

Why is the self luminous dot on the seconds hand placed like that? Never seen in another manufacturer, probably for good reason.
@Marshal774 ай бұрын
Its a counterweight. From either end of seconds hand to the center is exactly same amount of "bending" or torque caused by weight of the hand. In other words, Seconds hand is in complete balance at the center point, even lume pip side is significantly shorter than the long end.

Hi EJ, the SLGA001 is long gone at this point. We do have the pre-owned SBGH257 in stock though which is very similar.

Wearing an Apple Watch Ultra. I know it won’t be well received here. That’s OK. I wear it because the time is always perfect, it has every complication imaginable, and the combinations of complications can be customized to my liking. It can even function as a dive watch to 131’’. And a dive computer app can be downloaded. Most importantly, the health functions watch for A-fib, tachycardia, and a low blood oxygen level. It’s just perfect for me.

you do you man. i wear a smart watch too. but I will not go to a mechanical watch video and tell the world that I wear an Apple watch. It's like leaving a comment "I drive a Tesla, it has better horsepower, better technologies, better fuel consumption....etc" in a vintage car video. You're missing the point entirely
