SBGM021 - the original version of this - was my first ever Grand Seiko. I still own and adore it, though I don’t wear it a regularly as some others. It’s more of a dress watch for me. The only complaint I’ve ever been able to make about this watch is the thickness of the deployant clasp, but even that I’ve gotten used to. Apart from that, it’s almost perfect.

I purchased this watch a month ago. A local jeweler just became an AD for GS. I fell in love with this watch when I first saw it. It's my first GS and I can't stop wearing it. The water resistance isn't great, but I'm not a diver and I don't plan on wearing it in the pool, so 30m is fine. The watch is prettier in person.

Lol, it's weird how a video like this can make a purchase feel so much more validated. I have a limited edition version GS GMT and always felt it was underrated. I never regretted my purchase, especially since it was tied to a major life event. It's been one of my most worn watches for almost a decade, because of how versatile it is. Despite being completely satisfied with my purchase of this watch, I can't lie that it feels nice that their GMT is getting all this attention now.

I was looking for my first “nice” watch when I came upon Grand Seiko. I did some research on the company’s history and what they have done on the innovation side and started looking at the watches. The SBGM221 was a watch that I immediately dismissed. Then as i would search through the Grand Seiko lines, this watch kept catching my eye. I eventually couldn’t resist it and have loved this watch ever since. Value is unbeatable.

I have only begun to be an avid watch collector for the past 4 years and what I have noticed is that I have moved away from vintage watches with clean, functional dials to more modern renditions from brands known for craftmanship and attention to detail. The spg221 had that combination of both which was made clear when putting on the watch in comparison to other similar GS models. Pictures don't do justice, it has to be worn on the wrist , but be warned, you may not be able to take it off.

This is unrelated, other than being another brilliant creative product of Japan, but I watched 'The Boy & the Heron' [Studio Ghibli animated film] last night, and it was really wonderful [I knew it would be. Im an long time fan of their work] and a great film for the holiday, though prbly not for everyone.. most people I think would enjoy it.

I nearly bought one of these, but then discovered the SBGE225, which is really close to this, but Spring Drive. Couldn’t be happier with the piece. Proportions are pretty much perfect to me. Total strap monster. That one comes on a bracelet too. Complain about GS bracelets and clasps all you want. I’ll agree that they aren’t the best, but they are far from terrible. Also, the Spring Drive is rated at +/-15s per month, but mine runs +1s per week, and it doesn’t matter if it’s on the wrist or on the dresser. It’s always the same.

My grail snowflake is mesmerizing, swings well above its price point, essentially its form/function/feel has humbled me both as a healthcare professional always trying to do my best for my patient, as well as a human being. The 221 always catches my eye among GS models, the blued GMT hand is perfect, like the blued snowflake seconds hand and the otherwise perfect same ziratsu dauphin handset that my snowflake has. Even as a SF Giants fan that feels we should have gotten him, so cool to see the already legendary Shohei Ohtani also appreciating the fine craftsmanship of his countrymen.

I went into a boutique, with my mind set on this piece, but I was blown away by sbgm253 and ended up getting it instead of 221. Same watch, just a different dial and on a bracelet. Sbgm221 looked more yellow in person, which I think may be attributed to lighting in the boutique. Regardless, love this piece, and happy with an iteration of 221 in sbgm253.

Hi Teddy, I have a collection of Omegas, Tudors, etc. At the beginning of 2023 I decided to purchase my first GS. Initially I gravitated towards the 4 seasons, the sho sho, etc but had always admired this sbgm221 because I felt that it will age very well in it's design plus I love gmt movements. I purchased the sbgm221 and when I first opened the case it's beauty and design made me take a step back. Even at a price point of thousands more I feel it is a absolute bargain. I will include in the future more GSs in my collection but this one will always feel special.

It's a brown into an olive colour with cream stitching. It's dressed the watch down just enough to make it versatile enough for office to casual wear.

I looked t this watch a few years ago when I wanted my first really nice watch. In the end I went with the Tudor GMT as the WR of this watch was not up to snuff for a GADA watch. I have since moved on from the BB GMT (date issue). While I do love the look, price and function of this watch it is still the WR that keeps it out of my small collection. I am sure that with a sold casebook and screw down crown they could get this model to 100m of WR.

@@alsayedfakhri4597No, they are quite fragile actually. I’ve owned a SBGM003 (the true predecessor of the models showcased in this video) for nearly twenty years and it’s the only watch I’ve had to send in for servicing simply because it stopped working…three times! One of those was because of water intrusion for which I have no idea the source. Over the years I had actually planned to upgrade, first to the 021, then the 221, when those newer respective models were released, but the lack of meaningful improvements (uninteresting movement, just as bulky, embarrassing water resistance, etc) kept me away. I get it, you’re defensive of a now-popular brand. The Grand Seiko hype train has been running at full steam for a few years and there’s plenty to admire about them. But GS isn’t perfect, and they actually have a number of glaring blind spots. I think it’s more than fair to call out their deficiencies.

It's great to see a GMT that doesn't look like a dive watch. I have an SSK and a Zelos true GMT with the Miyota 9075, but both have a big bezel.

I really like GS and hope to own this one someday. The single most important thing they could do though is to call their models by names, not just an alphanumeric code. By all means keep that for movements but if you can’t distill it down to a name, that’s a sign that you have too many models. Oh wait…

@dphachey 7 ай бұрын

Stunning watch Teddy. I have a question. On watches like this where you can adjust the hour hand directly, do you have to be very exact on where you point it? In other words, you need to take the position of the minute hand into consideration? Seems to me that might not be so easy, as the minute hand could be pointed at any random time.

@robertlock6041 7 ай бұрын

Hi DP, I have a Tudor GMT with jumping hour so I will answer your question (nobody else seems to want to help) as the movements work in a similar way. You don't have to aim the hour hand precisely: as you turn the crown you can see and feel the hour hand jump to the new position. The watch will sort itself out from there. I suggest that you look at the Tudor, Rolex and Longines GMT videos together with "how to" videos on adjusting GMT watches. You will need to change the date via the hour hand too when you get to the end of the month. I hope this helps. There's a lot of help on KZfaq on all aspects of this subject. Good luck, cheers, Bob from England. 🙂🍻
