Grand Seiko...I'm a convert!
I didn't think I ever would be, but I have to confess that in the last few years I've become a bit of a Rolex fanboy...it pains me even more to admit that I've bit a bit snobbish about Grand Seiko in recent past - I'd see them on SC and think "nice piece, but can't bring myself to spend serious money on something that has Seiko on the dial".
Well, here is me eating humble pie and admitting I'm utterly blown away by Grand Seiko - I haven't even handled one in person (yet) but the following Watchfinder video really did impress me...I'm a convert)

I mean yes i’m aware that Patek etc costs 5 times the GS but if JLC and Rolex can make thinner movements dun see why the modern GS cannot be thinner.
