    Hey everyone.

    I would like to share my latest incoming. It is the Grand Seiko "First" J14070 cal 3180.

    This is the very first Grand Seiko ever made, and was the model after the Seiko Lord Marvel carved dial models. (I believe these carved dials gave Grand Seiko the confidence to create the First)

    Congrats, great catch. It's not easy to find one of those with a clean dial. :thumbsup:

    Thank you Dan. Yeah I have seen a few and I kinda gave up looking for one because of the damaged dials. So when I found this one with the original crown, I knew I had to get it.
