Travel stealth πŸ₯·πŸ»πŸ§³

Just came back from a longer business trip and one the watches accompanying me was the Grand Seiko SBGR305, the first modern single logo piece. 


Makes for a great travel watch, easy to pair, adequately robust to deal with the odd rain shower, sufficiently interesting and adequately stealthy.

And the strap is very nice too!

I suppose you might have had a hand in it πŸ˜‰

From the P20 Hentschel πŸ˜‚

The strap should be familiar to some here…

Lots to like Cheers JML

The relaunch was good in many ways…

The new titanium case, new movement (with so far few applications), including the larger and more legible date wheel πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘πŸ»

Sooner or later…

Beautiful and historically important piece

as it’s a memorial for a new era in GS, when they separated themselves from Seiko.

I think it's just a tiny separation

Change of logo on dial and on business card, maybe moved to another corner of the office - not much else when it comes to manufacturing the watches. I should look into that more. Cheers, Cazalea

That would be an interesting post / article

Looking forward to reading it πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘πŸ»

Absolutely - and fortunately not yet celebrated for it…

Meaning still easy to find at an appropriate price point πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘πŸ»

Always liked the case on that one

It's unique in the GS world, isn't it?

We need to ask Mike…

There are supposedly two more references with the same movement but not sure the case was taken over, too πŸ˜ŠπŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ

Definitely a nice choice for your travels, dependable and dignified.

The cool granular finish on the dial also enhances legibility, I assume?

Not sure if it’s primarily legibility…

But certainly makes it a lot more interesting for the wearer πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘πŸ»
