Grand Seiko! A brand that isn't new...BUT lately has been flying out of watch boutiques everywhere. Suddenly they are a brand that is or will be at the front of everyone's minds when they are looking for a new watch to purchase.
Why though? Watch the video to find out! (Spring drive, Zaratsu, unique dials...snowflake, etc!)

#grandseiko #SBGA413 #sbga429 #SBGP015
Today, Christian visits London Jewelers' Manhasset location to review three watches that prove just why Grand Seiko is such a dominating force in the watch market! The three main reasons are their dials/materials, their attention to the US market, and their movements.
First, we have the SBGA413, a member of the brand's Four Seasons collection. This example is the "Spring" variant, with a beautiful light pink dial that recalls the color of freshly fallen cherry blossom leaves. It's crafted from high-intensity titanium, making is super light on the wrist and also very durable, is a US market exclusive (along with the rest of the collection), and is powered by the brand's Spring Drive technology, making it the perfect bridge between the three reasons we outlined.
Next up, we have the SBGP015, a member of the 60th Anniversary collection with its stunning blue sunburst dial and pop of red on the seconds hand. Crafted from steel and 200 meters water resistant, the main defining feature of this watch is its matching blue ceramic bezel, which is non-rotational and plays beautifully with the light.
Finally, we have the SBGA429, another US special edition like the Four Seasons, this time celebrating "soko," or the time of the first frost. Its vertically grained, charcoal-colored dial is meant to embody the aesthetic of the thick bamboo forests of Japan, with accents of green to reinforce the ever-present role of nature in the Grand Seiko design process.

Seiko wants to sell you their watches. Rolex wants you to beg them to sell you their watches.

@ricdaij 3 года назад

That’s why I plan to purchase the Zenith El Primero with the ceramic bezel. It’s ridiculous what they’re doing with the Daytonas.

@LocalWatchGuy 3 года назад

You can literally beg Rolex to take all your money and they would still refuse lol

@happywanderer5632 3 года назад

Agreed, and for that reason I would never buy a Rolex. There are just too many other excellent brands out there.

@PersonaN007Grata 3 года назад

Rolex is the De Beers of the watch industry. They artificially limit supply to convoy exclusivity. Many fashion houses do the same with luxury goods such as handbags. It’s all marketing and people keep falling for it. Just as how most people don’t know anything about diamonds except that they’re expensive, most people don’t know much about watches except they know that they want a Rolex. And even horological enthusiasts want a Rolex because they too are victims of envy.

I saw Grand Seikos in real life, for the first time ever, a month ago. These timepieces are truly breathtaking. And if I’m not mistaken, the sales specialist actually had the four-season watches on display. He also told me that if one has all four watches, Grand Seiko gifts the proud owner with an exclusive box to house the watches.

Weight is important for sport and sport dress watches. However, for such a unique watch with a "snowflake" dial, a light-weight metal should be used..... Snowflakes are light, titanium is light. After all, you don't pickup a heavy snowflake from the ground. Titanium was the right choice.

Couldn't agree more. I have a Snowflake, its awesome.. When I hear/read people say that they were really interested in the Snowflake until they picked it up and it was so light it felt cheap I am like, what part of its made of titanium didnt you understand?

I own the SBGA429 Soko Shadow that you featured in the video. I related to the story behind that watch in that I was able to visit Arashiyama during the season. Also, the sweep of the Spring Drive is a calming influence that helps me focus at work. Like a moment of zen on my arm.

I collected my GS Snowflake 2 weeks ago and I love the details. But I also love how refreshingly different the weight of the titanium feels on the wrist. It’s my only titanium watch, and most of my watches will ALWAYS be steel, but it makes a really nice change to have the lightweight on rotation.

For the past year I've been debating on a Tudor BB Chrono or the Zenith El Primero Sport. The problem is I have 2 Speed Masters already and while those are really nice watches, I was looking for something unique and Grand Seiko has the quality, price and features of a watch that I don't currently have. So it actually makes a great deal of since for my collection. Keep up the great work.

You made the wrong choice my friend

@jimlittle5769 3 года назад

I have one of the new Seamaster 300M divers and also a GS Snowflake. Love both of them. Both excellent choices, IMO.

@@jimlittle5769 it was a tough choice. If Money was no problem, easily I’d of snagged the blue 300m. That watch screams summer! And that size really does look good. That’s a good combo!

@jimlittle5769 3 года назад

@@wagz54 yeah, I have the blue one. I had wanted one for a very very long time so was very happy to get it. Also love the microadjust, its very helpful and the only thing that GS needs to do to improve their product is to include a microadjust on their bracelets

I only have vintage GSs. Wanna try modern GS.

Good points for going Grand Seiko. My one minor complaint, unless this is no longer the case. GS should have local service centres within the country to avoid needing to ship Spring Drive watches to Japan for service.

@aaronmunro5818 3 года назад

There is a Grand Seiko service center in New Jersey that services all GS models, including those with spring drives. I got this info from the GS boutique in NYC. Not sure where the rumor started that SD models must be sent to Japan.

There needs to be a 4th reason...they have started making them thinner....but will this ever happen? I love my chunky Tudor BB GMT but the thickness suits the watch. When i put on an exquisite dialled Grand Seiko the chunkiness doesn't work
