On the Wrist, from off the Cuff: Grand Seiko - SBGR325, Grand SARB / 36mm Rolex Datejust Alternative

SBGA283 and Monta Noble fill that space for me

[@ericarghirudis3462]

i always liked the scvs, i am very tempted by a king seiko,but which one, i haven't seen them in the flesh. however, I love baton hands,so I don't think those watches compete with the datejust for me. I always dreamed of a higher grade snxs, with a different case, no day, just a date ,same markers, or even no date 38mm !! all the watches I'm interested in have dauphine handsets,king seiko,alpinist alpinist....

I like that the new KS upgraded the movement, but undermined that by using a straight end-link bracelet. Such a gorgeous watch, but I have immense disdain for the 6R31 (and 35) movements.

[@AverageBros]

Well, there's always the 6L35 powered SJE091 with a better movement and traditional endlinks

[@thanhnguyenmanh6293]

Scvs001 amazing

[@tankt13]

Let’s be real, these aren’t anything killers. Amazing watches, yes. Rolex “killers”, no.

[@AverageBros]

If you value lower volume pieces with more human intervention, hand finishing, and ultra sharp details... yeah, that's pretty killer.

[@A_Dude_And_His_Watch78]

These are all better than Rolex.

[@P1anetMar5]

Speak for yourself

[@Emaratilfy]

Never going to part with my SARBs 017, 033 and 035. Never.

[@AverageBros]

They're solid pieces 👌

[@rickjason215]

I don’t like push pull. They couldn’t put in a screw down crown? I have the Snowflake and it is my daily driver. It is titanium and very light. There are plenty of beautiful GS watches with screw down crowns. Nice watch, but I would pass.

[@mukakta]

Disagree personally. The threading on the crown tube would wear down over time, especially if you unscrew it often for winding. I'd rather skip that altogether, but then again I don't really do anything remotely aquatic with my watches

[@AverageBros]

Seems like an odd reason to pass on a dress watch but to each their own I guess

[@rickjason215]

@AverageBros I have a push pull watch, and it is very hard to wind. Every time I wind it, I feel like I am destroying the seal. I don't wear the watch for that reason.

[@AverageBros]

​@@rickjason215sounds rough, the majority of watches have push/pull crowns and no issues though, so your experience seems more like an exception vs being the rule.
