Ah, the blue box of happiness. Been a couple years since I’ve done that. Congrats Sanjay, it looks beautiful. Seriously, this could be a one watch collection.
It's a gorgeous watch. I agree that I would take this over a Rolex, BUT I don't think it's a watch for you. It fits about the same as your Omega though, which I already think is a little large on your wrist, but it has a longer lug length. So, it takes something that's already a little too large and makes it larger. Not good. The size of your wrist has real limitations, which is something you've said on numerous occasions. A 34-38mm (maybe) with a short lug to lug would fit perfect on your wrist. I'm also a small wristed man, as a lot of men are these days. We can't wear 40 mm with a 51mm length without looking like we're in 2003. I wish it were different, I really do, but it's just reality.
Thanks for a very thoughtful comment. ❤️ I agree in a sense, but at the same time, I think I'm willing to make an exception for now. It's a similar length to the Black Bay 58 Bronze I traded toward this. I think it's the bigger watch in my collection that replaces the other big watch in my collection. I feel like if all my watches were small/similarly sized, I could get bored.
This was a model I was seriously looking at. Love the forest green. I want t a GMT and a spring drive so this would sort out both. Enjoy you new piece.
Awesome watch. Just 2mm too fat and lug to lug should have been less or the end link shouldn’t extend so much. But it’s a Grand Seiko, some things will never change lol.
I have a much bigger wrist size than you and I thought these SBGE25# models would wear big for me. I'm perplexed why you would even try. People with 165mm wrists would stop at 46-47mm wingspan, and your wrist is even smaller. So after seeing dozens of videos of you acquiring and selling ill-fitting watches, singing the praises of a watch that you're just going to get rid of months later, it leaves nagging questions that I can't ignore. Suffice to say, and respectfully, I believe that someone needs to be on a solid foundation if they're going to be appraising things.
Congrats my brother! I mean that sincerely, but I also don’t think this is a watch that stays, and it’ll be a bit of a contradiction to your new collecting strategy 🫣I hope I’m wrong, just seems like what you’ve disliked from GS in the past; size most notably.
Definitely a beautiful watch. Thanks for showing it.
Grand Seiko back in Sanjay’s collection. The order has been restored!!!😂
Congratulations. It’s a beautiful watch!
Haha thank you very much, my friend!
All's right with the world!
🤣🤣
Ah, the blue box of happiness. Been a couple years since I’ve done that. Congrats Sanjay, it looks beautiful. Seriously, this could be a one watch collection.
Blue box of happiness indeed!
it really could be a "one and done" watch
MICRO-ADJUST?!?! I can’t believe it!!!!!!
Wow! Bravo Grand Seiko. Bravo. 👏
Haha it's a miracle 😁
Congrats! Forest green so nice
Absolutely beautiful watch!!!! Love that color and love the spring drive movement!
It really is! Thanks for watching
Aw man that intro hit me hard I needed to hear that. Thank you for the vid!
Thank you for watching! You matter!
This is a stunning Grand Seiko 😍 👌 I dig the box it comes with
I knew you couldn’t be Grand Seikoless for very long 😆. Congratulations Sanjay and wear in great health.
Haha thank you my friend!
Very nice. Congrats Sanjay
Amazing and their bracelets are magnificent 🙌🤩.
Super sharp! Love the color and clarity of that crystal…shows off this great looking dial!
That's such a huge plus. The crystal is amazing!
Total stunner. I don't like 4 o'clock date windows or crowns but that is a gorgeous watch.
It really is! Thank you, my friend!
Congratulations, I love your choice of the green dial. Personally would take a GMT Master over this but I can see why you love this watch!
Congrats on this pickup! I was cross-shopping this with the steel bezel mechanical version. Tough choice, but can't go wrong.

Super exited to watch this one.

Thank you very much! It's great so far!
yahoo! super!what a pro unboxing~ ;))
Haha thanks so much!
The green pops very popular on the market atm beautiful piece you have there my friend
Thanks so much, my friend! 🙌
Nice! I was actually eyeing the black and may have to get green now haha
Good luck deciding!
I highly recommend them 👍😁
Awesome watch. Just 2mm too fat and lug to lug should have been less or the end link shouldn’t extend so much. But it’s a Grand Seiko, some things will never change lol.
Congratulations! Enjoy 🍻
Thanks so much!
Great size for a Sports GS on your wrist 👍
Thanks so much Toran! Hope GS comes up with a 40mm diver in this case 😁
Hey Sanjay, great video!
Glad you liked it 🙂
What's a SJE093 🤷♂️ A nane would be helpful.
Haha, Seiko's first diver reissue 🙂
SBGE285 would be my choice of SD GMT.
Ah yes that's a beautiful piece as well!
the SJE honeymoon is already over?
Haha honeymoon may be over, but the love hasn't faded 😛
Didn't seem right you not having a GS.
Yeah, It was a weird stretch of time haha
Great watch but honestly it’s too big for you my man. A smaller size would look much better on your wrist.
I totally understand. I have a few small watches and it's nice to have a larger piece. I appreciate the great counsel, my friend!
@@engineer_wannabe enjoy the watches, you have a great taste!

Too big on your wrist. Still a beautiful watch though.
It really is a beauty
My wrist will just have to put up with it 😁

You may be right...but I hope not!
