We know you want more watches…. click here: linktr.ee/watchfinder

5:49 that shot fading the lume was beautiful deserved just a couple seconds more (:

I’m more into G-shocks and quartz but that sweep on the Grand Seiko is something else out of this word that is hypnotic

“When it comes to its dive watches, Seiko credibility still has a long way to go.” Considering Seiko pretty much wrote ISO6425, considering it invented a 1000 metre diver without an HEV in the early seventies, considering its entry level Turtle and Samurai can easily give a Submariner a run for its money functionally, I beg to disagree that it’s credibility is in doubt. Maybe it’s panache isn’t there yet, but Seiko’s reputation was made by its inexpensive but indestructible dive watches for the last forty years. **i paused video at this quote to write the above comment, then saw that Mr Hands actually mentioned most of those points. Apologies if I come across as ignorant.

"a magnifying windows to cater for it's ageing buyers" LOL

Will never get over the sweeping seconds on GS

"...and the Sea Dweller, a magnifier on the date for its aging buyers." Haha!

I am not a dive watch fan, but that Omega ... wow, just wow, what a beauty

GS is really working their pricing upward as their popularity has grown. I have an SGBH255, which uses the same case as this one, but with the Hi-Beat movement and a more interesting textured dial. Even though it is huge, it wears really easily due to it being Ti.

The Grand Seiko we've waited for is a diver at 40mm.

The finish of GS turns Rolex into a childs plaything. I have both, and both have their place. But there is just no going around the incredible details of a grand seiko. Which is something that will never be faked as convincingly as some Rolexes are

That Grand Seiko’s Spring Drive sweeping seconds is unparalleled in the industry, and is the only unadulterated faithful representation of the passage of time which is in a continuous uninterruptible movement. Simply mesmerising.

The smooth second on the GS is soooo satisfying to watch, i cant't even...

I bought the GS... and I haven’t taken it off since I did. It really is quite stunning in person. Much more subtle in a E63s Estate sort of way. The clasp is definitely the weak point especially compared to my Rolex and Panerai but the band makes up for it. The interesting part about the clasp though, is it’s dive suit adjustability on the fly that also makes one get over the design..function over form for sure. I’m use to wearing a Marine Master SBDX014 so I’m probably the wrong one to ask as far as size but it really wears nicely. I’m not sure about the negative comments about the dial....in person I assure you that it really is fabulous. You find yourself looking at it as your driving with the sun hitting it and your hand is at the top of the wheel. The polishing and the ceramic bezel continue to make me feel that it is worth what I paid for the watch... sounds kind of weird to say for an $11K watch (the most I’ve ever spent on a time piece), but it’s true.

Every watch you review,it’s like discovering a new planet.

Your awesome narration, add premiumness to the watch

Great video. I hope to see that new GS in person soon. Cheers!

The sweeping hand on GS is so addictive,,, the more i see it the more i love it. GS sell tech, Rolex sell brand Omega sell design. They each have their own strength,,, for my pick it will be Omega. Love what they coming out after 2018, they have both the tech, look & off cos history. The micro shots of this video is amazing,,,,, correct me if i'm wrong, the shot is so clear that I can see some tiny white 'dots' on the GS dial.

Thank you for another great video

Rolex has been resting on their laurels. Omega and GS are way ahead with their flagship divers.

Thank you for another great video about an “experience” & not just specs and the usual diatribe about how “superior” ROLEX is, I’ve my name on a waiting list at the GS Boutique for this one - cannot wait to see if in person...worth the $?....I’ll let you know. 😎👍🏼

You know it’s a good day when Watchfinder&Co. puts up a new video.

I love ❤️ dive watches but for now I’ll just stick with my dive computer-it actually gets wet in the ocean!!

You would be a very lucky man if you own just one of these watches. Competition is not relevant here, I think.

Consider doing a video on the Jaeger LeCoultre Master Compressor Extreme Lab 2. A very different watch, way outside the box for such a traditional watch manufacturer.

Enicar Ultrasonic Sherpa Seapearl divers always most iconic divers I have two of them from the early 60’s still going strong !

Omega Planet Ocean all day and everyday for me out of these 3. Interesting he makes a big deal about depth rating, and the Omega is on a Leather strap. Which really just proves it's probably the most important aspect is how a watch wears, feels and looks

Notice the true sweeping second hand of the seiko, I don’t know of another watch that has a truly completely smooth seconds hand

Nice video, thank you Watchfinder. Can't warm up to spring drive, sorry.

Awesome! Not for me but can appreciate the attention to detail from GS

Thoroughly enjoyed this video. I love GS Spring Drives! 5 day power reserve is impressive. My first good dive watch was the Seiko Marinemaster 300m. This new GS has come along way. Thanks & Stay Safe

Amazing details

Spring Drive needs a redesign reshuffle. The trick here was simple... they took the hated position for the power reserve and twitched the dial a little bit so the day is now at 4 and the PR at 9 but still just a quick-fix. I'm still gonna buy this, though, but I promise it'll be the last before they actually do something about that PR display positioning and the fact they don't make is normal the 8-day PR although in the after-market you can get it for 1k.

Last time as I was going to bed, Watchfinder & Co. put up a new Speedmaster video. This time, it's a new Grand Seiko video. Both definitely worth losing sleep over.

I love today. Another wonderful video from the talking hands.

Beautiful watches!! How about a review on the MTM Special Ops SEAL Squad Watch. Thanks

Amazing tech and an awesome watch no doubt however I would still go for the Omega every time. And yes I love Seiko and have several of them already.

More a History Channel than a watch channel. And you nailed it congratulations!! Could you review some Tissot watches. Like the gentleman or the LeLocle Powermatic 80? Those a nice mechanical watches on a bidget

I have the sub, sea dweller and planet ocean. If Seiko could thin it’s watch to planet ocean level and trim to 44-45 mm, it would be great! The technical changes from the SBGA 229 are great, but it can be better. GS- Holler at me for ways to Samurai the competition...

Hey. Could you do a review of JLC sector dial. Blue hands. Is this a limited edition? Thanks. Love your videos.

That sweep. Amazing.

Very surprised by the poor finishings on the GS, especially compared to the PO

If ever happen a mega documentary about watch. They need you man. Ur really good.

Adds are killing the vibe, man. Play them all first so they don't interrupt

Love GS, but is it that hard to come up with a few names for their models?

Where can I learn about some of the history about the different watch brands like this channel talks about? It’s really interesting.

Not a GS I’d buy but the new SD is exciting, along with the new high beat movement GS are thinning their watches down, but I fear the prices are going to go up, certainly if the White birch is anything to go by. Also I hope as demand increases they don’t let the quality slip.

Hey. Could you do a review of jaeger master control sector dial. Is this a limited edition? Sure is pretty watch thanks

I would definitely pick the omega out of these.

I feel you sort of under stated seiko's dive watch innovations, the tuna comes immediately to mind and while not having the rolex hyped name the marine master watches are very much diving tools not pretty decoration.

Can we please have a video for the affordable king turtle 2020, with the sunburst blue dial?

Can you review the JLC master sector dial? The one with only the date. Not much info on this but I want this watch! Is this a limited edition? Can’t find any on Chrono24.

Hello would be interested in what you think of the St Moritz / Momentum watches. Thanks from Aberta Canada

Omega is such a gem, they make great watches that aren't stupidly overpriced.

Great content. Audio was very low and it was on full. Using iPhone.

The coaxial escapement needs lubrication but actually very lightly just for information

Omega looks the best

In all seiko or gs divers, it always seems theres hefty empty space between dial and sapphire inner surface, its like high church dome for no reason with bezel insert sitting in outer space. Design should be flatter to sell.

Omega hands down.

Love the smoooth second hand sweep on the Seiko

Please kindly do a review on Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra co axial 8800 38mm .

Omega and RLX stick to their designs for heritage reasons. But is there such a thing as perfect design? Not sure. I like the differnt approach about Grand Seiko. They actually never stand still and always keeps on pushing forward pursuing that next step in watchmaking. The designs always change (it's not even meant to be perfect) and the sweeping seconds hand represents that: never stop. GS is probably one of my favorite respected watchmaking brands.

please review a classic fusion by hublot!!! and a conquistador, frank muller. Also would love to see some jacob and co. Great videos!!!

The real world accuracy for my SBGA231 is 4-5 seconds per month after a year and a half of daily wear. This new Spring Drive is 30% MORE ACCURATE. Oof.

Beautiful watch indeed

Nice video as always! i need to point out that the 9RA5 can’t be celebrating 60 years of Spring drive as it was first patented in 1978 and first watch with Spring drive landed in 1999 (7R68)

That sweep...😍

I'm a huge Grand Seiko fan and I would almost always choose GS instead of slightly boring and borderline overrated Rolex and Omega watches...but NOT in this case. When I first read of this fantastic piece, I was hyped to the maximum. As there are no GS dealerships in my home country, I managed to see and try one in Paris. What a disappointment! The watch is really wonderful, and it is finished above the standards of its Swiss rivals, plus it has a Spring Drive movement, for me the most exciting achievement in the watch world of today. So, why the sore feeling? Because it looks like a bloody brick on the wrist, that's why! I tried and wore some beasts in my time (Hamilton X-wind Chrono comes to mind), but nothing looked so sophisticated, so delicate, while at the same time being so unwearable! When you have a large watch, like AP Royal Oak Offshore for example (that I personally loathe, but whatever), it is at least designed and finished to be what it is - a huge, robust, tough timepiece, a different kind of luxury. And this GS Diver looks like the Frankenstein's monster, like a cross between Beauty and the Beast...yes, I like its design very much, I adore its finish and movement...I only wish it would come in a (way) smaller and slimmer package! So, my answer is - NO, this is NOT the Diver that I was waiting for, but it shows some promise...until then, I'll stick to my Omega and wait for GS to release something more wearable for us guys without Dwayne Johnson's-like wrists!

Rolex Sea Dweller 43! So beautiful and only 43 size ever made, perfect dimensions!

Surprised to see a competitors advert in the middle of this presentation!! GS too big, Rolex too Rolex, I'd go for the Omega.

So against those three then, what do you make of the ORIS Prodiver Chronograph...at a 1000m water resistance and locking bezel? Care to add this to your video?

It’s not on sale even at my boutique store here, so how did you get your hands on it?

blancpain fifty fathoms bathyscaphe is a great "desk driver" for someone looking to spend that sort of money

Now that GS is what i call a steel stunner ...looks right bad ass

I like The Seiko LSGA001 dive watch. I thank Omega should eliminate the crown valve, it looks like a horn and makes the watch design uneven.

Nope , thirst I think of Sinn UX , that’s a real diver !

Omega looks very beautiful

The lume for SLGA001 is all green how'd you get blue lume on the indices? 07:58

I wish you guys would review the IWC Portuguese 7-Day.

I love the production quality of these videos. Amazing!

I know it's a Grand Seiko video but damn those Omega macros look incredible

GS aside, how do you rate Seiko in general? Are they a worthy entry level watch for a new enthusiast?

Omega for me, but can we have a JLC Reverso review now please?

9RA5 next level stuff. Just awsome all the way - its the high end diver watch nobody needs but everybody wants :) WOW

I was a little turned off by the 4pm crown, but that movement is astounding.

In my opinion the Seiko Prospex Spring Drive watches or the lower end GS Spring Drive or Hi-Beat Sport watches are a better value for money. Less water resistance, but most of us don’t dive and those of us who do definitely do not go below 200-300m. Same Spring Drive movement but with a 3 day power reserve, so you’ll have to wind the watch 4 times in 10 days rather than 2 on the SLGA001. Not such a big deal for me, as I will most definitely take much pleasure in winding and spending time admiring the watch. You also get a lot more style options and (don’t berate need for this) better finishing on the lower cost models imho. On top of that, you have a GMT option on the lower end Spring Drive watches. This massive beast just doesn’t hit the mark for me.

fantastic

Glashutte Original also has a pretty pog diver.

Thanks for uploading. GS deserves a lot more recognition.

There was a time, just a few months ago, that you could watch one of these without an ad, I counted four in this 11 minute video. Is this KZfaq or Watchfinder doing this?

Yes, shock resistance, an everyday trial you would see that greatly damages the watch more than sea depths.

I love GS but are only people with 8” wrists their diver target market? And a date window that doesn’t match the colour of the dial??? For shame

I don't understand why Seiko/Grand Seiko won't make a good 40mm diver, the day they do I'll be first in line

Do a review on the new jaeger master control calendar 2020 plz !

I love your content and I understand the commercials of KZfaq but having to skip or watch 3 adds for disney plus in an 11 minute video is really excessive.

I love the GS as the most beautiful dressy dive watch-especially given the elegant glide of Spring Drive, accuracy, and ridiculous PR. Technical dive capability would go to a Sinn though-if it’s about numbers. 😉

The dial text and finish is abysmally bad on the GS.

Why is the date on the Rolex in the middle of the dial?

Funny. When research for an endgame diver Omega and Rolex didn‘t even made the short list. In the end it came down to GS or Blaincpain.

3 commercial breaks during an 11 minutes videos, 4 ads in total...
