Seems like it's essentially a 6R27 with a GMT module. Other 6R20 variants that have an extra complication are 6.15mm in height, so it must be somewhere close to that.
I don't imagine most ADs would want to get involved in a private sale, unless maybe the watch was bought from there in the first place.
It has been known for a good ten years that this is a myth, but people keep shelling out more for the 'J' versions. It's total nonsense that 'J' stands for Japan, let alone that it means the watch is...
Did you let them know that brown strap one is upside down? :P
The 50 year service thing is a myth perpetuated by blogs. At one time, in reference to the 'sealed cabin', the GS website said "Theoretically, additional lubrication is not needed for fifty years."...
If you like that then you might enjoy his Elon Musk interview, where he was laughing at Rolex for being lazy because the watches are a couple of minutes fast every few months.
9S55 is actually the previous generation of GS movements, developed concurrently with the 8L as you noted. The current one is 9S65 which has the 3-day power reserve and the skeletonized 'MEMS'...
They moved the 4S upmarket to Credor when they developed the 6R. After a quick Google, it looks like the 1995 Alpinists were 33-35,000 yen. The 6R versions in 2006 were 50-60,000. They'd probably...
I also endorse Haveston. The fact that they're longer at the 12 end, along with the floating keeper, means the buckle sits under your wrist. Their M1936 is a single layer and might go quite nicely...
They're great.

They're better proportioned than last year's 62Mas recreations. The smaller bezel diameter and sloping case flanks help to make it feel quite...
You may have trouble finding a no-date automatic, they don't do many in the current lineup and the ones they do are 42mm.
The nearest thing to an OP 39 is the SBGR253 (or 251 with silver dial) at...
Right, it's the whole bottom half of the chapter ring.
I think these will be nice, but I don't see the need for the Rolex homage (the lugs are also similar to an Aqua Terra). It's one thing on a...

The only thing I had that looked vaguely like diving equipment was a bicycle pump :witless:
+1, about to get one from there. Looks like they do the same ones as Watchgecko for significantly less.
It's inevitable, they can't pass up an anniversary. I think the first 6105 was first made in 1970, so 2020 would be logical.
Next year is the 50th anniversary of the quartz astron, and the 6139...
Frederique Constant now has a hybrid automatic smartwatch, using their base in-house calibre. It has some kind of analytic feature that keeps tabs on the health of the movement, measures daily rate...
Was it ever actually confirmed that Rolex, the company, 'advises' that you wait ten years before service? As in, does there exist somewhere a press release, or a line in a guarantee booklet, that...
Alec Bladwin's watch certainly cost more than your car.
:nightmare:
That painting is a decent depiction of my search for a reverser wheel the other day. Jesus didn't appear, despite invoking his name several times.
The Glasgow AD has the SBGT241 for £3100.
Edit: Are Seiko UK's recent price revisions extending to GS? They've got the Snowflake on there at £5300, last I saw it was £5750.
Actually I think it's probably the other way around - it's been my experience that the people running Seiko UK's website aren't exactly in the loop. I bet the Seiko web people just put up the Euro...
Throw it at the ceiling?
Sorry.
I was expecting this to be way over £3k, so I thought £2900 wasn't too bad considering the upgraded materials. Seiko seems to be trying hard to bring worldwide prices into some kind of similar...
I'd bet this is the case, at least the part about the Prospex branding. There's going to be a green dial limited edition MM300 with the Prospex X on the dial, so I can see them updating it a bit and...
