    True watch connoiseurs love the Grand Seiko. Is this piece one of the 4 seasons edition?

    Great watch and I'm thinking about getting one as well. Dollar for dollar I think it's a great purchase given all the hysteria over the Rolex SS watches. Cheers!

    Bought a Grand Seiko a month ago. The 600m divers watch, 5 day reserve Spring Drive. Not one second off over the last 4 weeks. Impressed.

    Do they still make those ? Good looking watch - I like it more every time I see it.

    41 mm ?

    Thanks.
    Yes, these are still in production.
    But not easy to get.
    Mine is the 41mm.
    Rolex doesn’t offer it on a jubilee.
    So I sourced one as a change-up to the oyster bracelet it comes on.

    I see that few, if any, set the date correctly. You have to wonder why they keep putting dates in the watches...

    This was once one of the undervalued Rolex sport watches, now its picking up.
    This is different from a submariner, GMT or Daytona. But it has the dial of a submariner, slim case of a daytona and band of a sport watch. And its not top heavy like sport watch. If you are buying a DJ TT, i would recommend this instead.
    Love the platinum on this.

    Have owned this from new. I bought around 1994 at Watches of Switzerland in Bond Street in London.

    The list price was £9,000 and I remember I offered them £6,500 and they said ok.

    I remember the numbers like it was yesterday as that was my first big watch purchase!

    I love mine. It's got a heft that doesn't let you forget it's there, yet doesn't look big on the wrist. Great watch.

    That is the Zenith Rolex Daytona movement.

    I had that same watch. Loved it. Wish I had never sold it.
