. . . walked out . . .



. . . with this.

 

Love it

 

Simple, strong statement of quality. Good choice.

 

Very nice. I much prefer their simple dress watches to their sportier models. Manual wind?

 

Sublime. Enjoy it.

 

Finally had a chance to check one out in person, a buddy picked one up and we had lunch. That beautiful snow white dial, just incredible finishing and attention to detail! Enjoy yours!

 

Congrats! That's a sharp-looking watch. I wish I had a boutique nearby to check out more of their models in person. The ones that I have managed to try on have all been gorgeous.

 

Classic and understated. A fine choice wear in good health.

 

The better choice (and superior understatement) than the usual 3-6-9-crown-model

 

Superb choice and hope you enjoy wearing it , the quality of GS finishing really is not all hype .

 

Yes, manual wind. I believe all SBGW models are manuals, please correct me if I'm wrong on that count.

It took somewhere around five minutes to make a decision. I went in looking for the SBGW285 with half a mind to buy, and bonded with 293 instead.

 

Yes they are:

I'll be there!

 

This is very helpful - cheers! I do struggle to keep up with their reference numbers

 

Congratulations on this beauty - the quality of finishing is really outstanding on those GS.
Did you also check the Spring Drive models - I am mesmerized by the sweeping second

They have now nice models w/o power reserve indication on the dial.


My skyflake says hello:

 

I looked at a few, and one of my pals just bought one . . .



. . . but my preference is for purely mechanical watches. Thanks for sharing yours!

 

Excellent.
