Check out this new GS LE
Not our own design, unfortunately, but I think it looks amazing:

It Seiko can make it look good in their shitty stock photos, it's going to be amazing in person.

Re: Check out this new GS LE
lol they do seem to be making the slightest effort these days. Their "2" (i.e. 211 instead of 011) photos are a lot higher res at least.
But yeah, GSes in general look so much better in person.
Re: Check out this new GS LE
That is very nice. Do any of their sporty watches have lumed hands and markers?

There are a few like the SBGE201 and SBGA229. They do a good job when they want to use lume but it's pretty infrequent in GS.

Re: Check out this new GS LE
Wouldn't normally be my cup of tea but that one sure has the wow factor I look for in any watch.
Re: Check out this new GS LE
That's really nice. I'd do one of those for sure depending on price (haven't looked at article).

I think it’s $7000 and limited to 700 pieces.koda240 wrote:That's really nice. I'd do one of those for sure depending on price (haven't looked at article).

Re: Check out this new GS LE
$6,500 list.
I find two things odd for this one: 1) a dressy watch was given drilled lugs -- do other GS's have this?, and 2) the thickness (14mm) -- with a 40mm case diametere it's gonna wear like a SeaDweller, which is not a very subtle watch.
It's absolutely beautiful and this is one of maybe only 3 Grand Seiko's I'd buy, oddities notwithstanding.

Seikonista on IG has a great video of it. This thing is gorgeous.

Damn! I'm in.
Re: Check out this new GS LE
That dial texture is really cool, I'll be interested to see what the dial color actually looks like once people take real world photos of them.

The dial looks like the Big Green Egg finish.
Re: Check out this new GS LE
That watch is fantastic. The drilled lugs are fine by me. I think of it more as a sports watch than a dress watch.
