I love how lively and enthusiastic this a week on the wrist is while still seeming authentic. One of the best ones yet. Great job Brandon, hope to see more content soon!
Absolutely love this guy and his review! Who would have thought that Lionel Ritchie looks would be so well matched with electronic/ Tron style music...? Ah, incredible watch as well! Seen it in the flesh, looks and feels a lot more expensive than it actually is
He's a fantastic reviewer. Doesn't do a ton, and its mostly watches he personally purchased, and his production quality and depth of review is excellent. Also, he's a Naruto fan who puts expensive watches on miniature figurines of Jiraiya and Minato, so definitely appreciate the nerdiness to make this fun. Check out his channel for others, Brandon Menancio is the name.
Eagle, who now goes by “E” has a day job now. Four years ago he began saving his royalty checks to buy watches. The royalties aren’t what they used to be, so he occasionally performs with a group of other one-hit-wonders. This GS is the result of recent concert T-shirt sales. Thank you Cleveland!!!!
This is Hodinkee on a whole other level with their week on the wrists, great music, great editing. Feels more like a lifestyle video than a standard review. 🔥
"Attention to detail." A phrase beaten into my brain as a young Naval Aviator and my lodestar ever since. I'm pleased a younger generation still embraces it. Your Dad was a wise man. Well done.
Brandon!!! My boy!!! Congrats!!! Wow, well done, well deserved! An inspiration keep killing it bro 👊😊. Also, I have to agree with you GS is just at another level. Congrats on the acquisition 🔥
Was so confused when the video started. I thought I pressed on the wrong video expecting Brandon haha Awesome vid as usual and always nice to see another GS
GS is up there in my favorite watches range. Omega and GS really. When I get home, I think I am buying the Spring Drive variant of this piece and I can't wait. I do wish they would upgrade their bracelets, but no watch is perfect. ---- Rocas
When I heard the voice at first I was like wait a minute am I watching the wrong channel? I never comment on videos but I have to say… Congratulations Brandon!!
I just picked up a GS White Birch, and I’ve been watching multiple reviews of the watch. I must say that your review was the best and spot-on. I reckon it helps that you actually own the watch that you reviewed; thus, I sensed a little more passion with your content. Great job 👏🏼
I forgot I was watching a Hodinkee video and thought I got some autoplayed RUclipsr with slick glossy b roll not an editorial week on the wrist. Watch is nice.
This was a really fun one, I enjoyed it a ton! Only tiny critique would be that the music is so much louder than his voice which had me turning up and down my speakers as I watched.
Amazing how of the dozens of White Birch reviews on RUclips, this is the only time I've heard about how truly revolutionary that new dual pulse escapement is Now I want one even more 😂
Excellent video, and a great watch too of course. Based on the comments, I would assume the higher ups at Hodinkee would be doing anything they can to get Brandon more involved. I'd love to see him make some appearances on Hodinkee Radio as well!
I loved this review. Brandon has great energy, it was very informative, and since I am a cyclist in Los Angeles it was nice to see him on the bike in LA.
Just got this watch yesterday. Amazing from all aspects, the dial is unbelievable beautiful, comfortable bracelet ( if GS can add micro adjustment function it will be even better, but the bracelet fits me well, so I am happy) decorated movement, for this price point, I don’t think you can find another watchmaker provide another decorated movement to compete with 9SA5. Bonus point: you can get discounts for this loving timepiece 😎 Highly recommended!
Wow....great review Brandon (as always) and congrats on being added to Hodinkee's staff......great pick up Hodinkee, Brandon always produced superb videos!!!
A big hats of to your video content Brandon! We have very similar taste (Birch and Lake Suwa brothers) and I picked up the Grand Seiko SBGM221 shortly after your review of this GMT. Hodinkee is lucky to have you :)
Great review! I love the movement 😍. Here's my thing though, its very SILVER, if the dial was more of a cream color I think it'd be even more incredible. Imagine if they put this movement in a 38mm dress watch?!
Wow, who is this guy? Extremely good taste. Music, style and energy is on another level in this one. How he pulled Grand Seiko on a bike idk, but it works. Real talent!
Brandon! Been waiting for another video on your channel, then find you contributing to Hodinkee. This was great, nice to see it is still your video with your style, flavor and humor.
Great video with the sunshine, outdoor, activities, bar environment shots! To update, With the Hi-beat~~ how has the accuracy been now 2 years passed ?
Personality Personality Personality I’m talking about the Grand Seiko ohh and you Brandon were a nice breath of freshness into the Hodinkee characters that bring such great content. Great music throughout added that extra pop of Flair… it didn’t go unnoticed.
Congrats on being a Hodinkee contributor Brandon, and excellent review as always. Its not every day that a leading channel adds some random contributor and the production quality actually goes up.

Brandon Menancio 👏🏽👏🏽 Bravo I'm so glad Hodinkee acknowledged your incredible talent 👌🏾You a House hold name now brother 👊🏾
I really like him, I hope he does more videos . Keep up the good work Brandon 👍🏻
WOOOOAHHGG! Brandon is on HODINKEE?!?!?! I had no idea!!!! AND WHAT A PERSON TO BE ON TEAM! I love it! Definitely lucky to have him!
Brandon's a breath of fresh air!

Love Brandon's content, glad Hodinkee gave him the nod for this one... Perfect guy to review this watch in particular.
Agreed. Brandon is great.
Loved this. Brandon is the kind of guy the watch world needs! Genuine enthusiasm!
Eagle-Eye Cherry has reinvented himself!
Eagle, who now goes by “E” has a day job now. Four years ago he began saving his royalty checks to buy watches. The royalties aren’t what they used to be, so he occasionally performs with a group of other one-hit-wonders. This GS is the result of recent concert T-shirt sales. Thank you Cleveland!!!!
The attention to detail gave him the eagle eye nickname, right? 😂
Great to see Brandon on here for a Week on the Wrist! Love the SLGH005
This is Hodinkee on a whole other level with their week on the wrists, great music, great editing. Feels more like a lifestyle video than a standard review. 🔥
"Attention to detail." A phrase beaten into my brain as a young Naval Aviator and my lodestar ever since. I'm pleased a younger generation still embraces it. Your Dad was a wise man. Well done.
Love both White Birch models! :)
The only thing spicier than that watch is that man 🧔
With you, You're Terrific, Brandon and Miguel doing watch reviews, just shows why the West Coast is the best coast
@@BB-gl7zt ❤️ ❤️
After having John Mayer and Ed Sheeran on this is the next best thing you’ve done Hodinkee!
Certainly the best A Week On The Wrist I’ve seen 🙌
I was confused what channel I was watching for a second. Awesome job, Brandon!
Awesome debut Brandon!
I love everything about this watch, except the bracelet. More taper and a micro adjust would have made it perfect.
is it a right thing to do to put a strapcode bracelet on a $10k watch?
I’ve the SLGA009 with SLGA007 two of my most favourite watches in my collection.
Brandon!!! My boy!!! Congrats!!! Wow, well done, well deserved! An inspiration keep killing it bro 👊😊. Also, I have to agree with you GS is just at another level. Congrats on the acquisition 🔥
Was so confused when the video started. I thought I pressed on the wrong video expecting Brandon haha
Awesome vid as usual and always nice to see another GS
Soooooooo confused. Wish i could like this more than once Brandon... Great video!
Whoa! Hodinkee...not on Brandon's channel. Not even addressing it. Cheers to you Brandon. Good pick up hodinkee.
This has quickly become my most wanted grail watch.
Like the subtle humor Brandon brought to this video and the fresh feel of the production. More from Brandon please!
When you’re considering buying a watch and the first RUclips review that comes up for it is from Brandon 🙌🏻
Love Brandon’s reviews! Great production quality, honest and clear commentary, and relatable storytelling.
I like and enjoying watching this guy more than Grand Seiko itself : )
Love your reviews and this is a nice collaboration with Hodinkee. They got the right guy for the job on this one.
Finally a hodinkee host with personality and style
That is a proper man with a proper watch. I like it.
4.35 also a really nice outfit
Brandon elevates Hodinkee’s AWOTW to a whole new level, well done! 👍🏻🎉
The quality of this production is otherworldly. 👏
Love the White birch!
Brandon, what can I say, another great video!
vow finally，the hidden gem go public😄
Great job Brandon. Awesome video on an awesome watch.
Cinematography is one of the best🔥
Awesome video Brandon. Love your channel.
this guy is talented and i watched every video of him. Pay him well hodinkee
The dial is mesmerizing.
Congrats on Hodinkee Brandon!!
GS is up there in my favorite watches range. Omega and GS really. When I get home, I think I am buying the Spring Drive variant of this piece and I can't wait. I do wish they would upgrade their bracelets, but no watch is perfect. ---- Rocas
Brandon, good to see you there with Hodinkee now. Big respect and cheers from Germany.
When I heard the voice at first I was like wait a minute am I watching the wrong channel? I never comment on videos but I have to say… Congratulations Brandon!!
That was a GREAT review. Well done.

BEST. WEEK ON THE WRIST. EVER.
I love your videos Brandon, man you're on a different level.
Brandon is BACK! Love your videos and special shouts to Hodinkee for providing you this platform.
I forgot I was watching a Hodinkee video and thought I got some autoplayed RUclipsr with slick glossy b roll not an editorial week on the wrist. Watch is nice.
Congrats, Brandon! Hodinkee found themselves a gem!
Idk what I like more, the watch or the master roshi hoodie haha 😅
This video sold me on this watch. What a stunner of a dial.
Bro! You made it! Happy for you! Your content always entertaining 🙌🏻
Congrats on the purchase! Hoping to add this to my collection.
TOO GOOD!!! Brandon, the video and the watch! Bravo 👏
Congrats on making the big leagues and taking team dream team with you!
Great vid 👍🏻 subscribed to Brandon’s channel a while ago and glad to see he’s getting the exposure he deserves.
Awesome review and congrats Brandon perfect fit for sure !

Fantastic video! This chap is up there with Ben’s original Talking Watches. 👏
This video was as good as the watch itself. Bravo!
Pure Gold!
Hey Brandon, it’s great that you are a Hodinkee contributor. Bravo!
Wow! From one of us mortals to one of them watch-Gods! Brandon is climbing up the ladder! Cheers!!
I was pumped to see the week on the wrist notification for this watch now even more excited it’s you doing it. Congrats🍻
The power reserve on the back through the display case back is brilliant. Also, I love the drilled lugs.
Wait. Brandon now works for Hodinkee?! Nice addition 👍🏻
This was a really fun one, I enjoyed it a ton! Only tiny critique would be that the music is so much louder than his voice which had me turning up and down my speakers as I watched.
Congrats Brandon on this wonderful video and the recognition!! Very happy for you on your success. Please continue to amaze us with your creativity :)
Amazing how of the dozens of White Birch reviews on RUclips, this is the only time I've heard about how truly revolutionary that new dual pulse escapement is
Now I want one even more 😂
Excellent video, and a great watch too of course. Based on the comments, I would assume the higher ups at Hodinkee would be doing anything they can to get Brandon more involved. I'd love to see him make some appearances on Hodinkee Radio as well!
Brandon over here killing it! Keeping it so fun
I loved this review. Brandon has great energy, it was very informative, and since I am a cyclist in Los Angeles it was nice to see him on the bike in LA.
Brandon my man! Great to see you on Hodinkee. Great move for both parties. Love your reviews and hope to see more of you on Hodinkee!
??? What RUclips Channel am I on? My tiny brains is so confused 🤯
Just got this watch yesterday. Amazing from all aspects, the dial is unbelievable beautiful, comfortable bracelet ( if GS can add micro adjustment function it will be even better, but the bracelet fits me well, so I am happy) decorated movement, for this price point, I don’t think you can find another watchmaker provide another decorated movement to compete with 9SA5.

This guy is awesome! Would’ve never pictures a review in this format for a Grand Seiko. Kept me hooked till the end. Great job !
Wow! Thought I was watching a different channel at first! Love this, so good, and congrats Brandon!

Hey, Hodinkee: more content from Brandon, please!
Great review! I love the movement 😍. Here's my thing though, its very SILVER, if the dial was more of a cream color I think it'd be even more incredible. Imagine if they put this movement in a 38mm dress watch?!
superb new style of video! Lovin' it Brandon and Hodinkee!
Great review. I love Brandon and his enthusiasm for Grand Seiko. One on my favorite reviewers is now on Hodinkee. Incredible!
I like seeing watches being used in these videos. Great video and a great presenter!
Wow, who is this guy? Extremely good taste. Music, style and energy is on another level in this one. How he pulled Grand Seiko on a bike idk, but it works. Real talent!
Brandon moving on up! Great to see some iconic LA locations as well.
Brandon is the man.

Brandon is a natural. Great watch and well presented
