The Grand Seiko Limited Edition  1 Comments

Published Wednesday, March 26, 2008 by Harry SK Tan |

 



I learnt of this GS Limited Edition Handwound some years ago from SteveG of who has a wonderful site called ninanet.net that shows off his collections of very desirable watches with photographs of phenomenal quality. I was invited to photograph this watch at a mutual trade and this was conducted in a basement coffee joint at a shopping centre. The watch is one of only 300 ever made and as expected the quality of the dial and finishing but was top notch but I was especially enamoured by the blue hands and how the watch as a whole sits wonderfully undersated on the wrist. This watch was probably manufactured in 2001 (according to SteveG's rating certificate) and as such showing the first signs wear. Nevertheless, the blue hands looks as good as new and against the egg white dial its quite mesmerising. The watch may be cased at only 36mm but it looks bigger due to the thin bezel.

I presonally would hope to see this watch in my collection someday - if I can find an owner who would willingly part with his. To view any of the individual images above, simply click on it to pause the slideshow using the popup toolbar.
