Surely not inside a Grand Seiko.

Ha! Well played sir. First time I've seen that in years tbh.

Some time next week, I imagine. It’s coming from the same dealer as my GS GMT and GO Senator - Watches of Mayfair. Their shipping isn’t instant, but it’s pretty prompt.

It comes on black alligator, but I like the look of brown.
Absolutely stunning Alan! Congrats and look forward to seeing it on your wrist!

It might be my favorite GS. I've been tempted by it many times. In pics it looks great on the BoR bracelet, but I think practically that combo you posted is perfect.

It’s certainly one of the purest Grand Seikos, reminiscent of their early models, and of watches from other makers that came before.
The general style and character is that of a ‘gentleman’s’ watch from the mid-twentieth century (still as ‘right’ as it ever was). For me, that means a strap.
We’ve probably seen the same photos of it on a BoR bracelet, and it does look good. It also looks too modern, and like it (or its owner) is trying too hard. Simple strap for me!

Reminds me of this KS:

Which I briefly had under consideration. Congrats, Alan!
