Very nice that - looks very much like one of my Dad's old Seikos, what's the model number pleas...?
7006 - 8040Much smaller than what I'm used to wearing but really nice!
.Years ago My Dad had a drawer full of Seikos from the '60s and '70s, I think my sister got rid of them when she bought his house and had a good clear out. Pity!

ah - that is a shame on a number of levels. I hope my children would like to keep one of my various watches when Im no longer here. They are quite a personal thing and pretty much the only thing worn each day/next to skin. except my grundies of course for which there are two.SBGY003 'Grand Cocktail' today. I really like this, simple but very high quality and with that unique, smooth, Spring Drive second hand.

That's gorgeous. Great size, manual wind, and GS did well to move the PR display, normally on the dial of SD watches, to the back.

The simpler the watch the better it is with GS as it allows the details to shine, it's what they do best though that's not to say that their more complex dials with multiple complications are mingers 
Credor's Eichi takes that and runs with it, and then some - I'd love to handle one.
Good to see you got the watermark in that shot, I've been in a GS retailer that didn't even know that such a thing existed!

Jesting aside, that really is a lovely thing, Alex.
You made me feel self conscious and now I've shaved my arms!! In all seriousness, no idea why my arms look so hairy in that photo

Essex, right? And you've got an Elise? How about a Lotus and Credor meet up? Credor's Eichi takes that and runs with it, and then some - I'd love to handle one.Good to see you got the watermark in that shot, I've been in a GS retailer that didn't even know that such a thing existed!
