    I can only agree.

    The 36/37mm quartz three handers are the only models I even like in the Grand Seiko range, so discontinuing them sadly makes Grand Seiko irrelevant as a brand for me.

    I think the remote is the same, just wired instead of wireless.

    Anything BenQ is probably the best desk lighting option on the market in my book.

    I've got the BenQ eReading Desk Lamp which I find a bit more flexible than the screenbar style fixed to the top of the monitor. Highly recommended !

    In hindsight that would have been even better ! 20 Bar too ... <<edit : ah, not multi-band 6 or Solar though !!! >>

    For me, the quartz is more accurate, slightly slimmer case, better aesthetics on the dial printing, and a much cheaper entry point than the automatic. That's why the 2264 is a "win" for me vs the...

    I didn't get into nice watches until my 50th year, and my big regret is that I didn't reach that point 25 years earlier, as I'd have saved my self a fortune on the watches I like (almost all of which...

    Agreed - looks great.

    I just can't get my head around a Speedy at £7,600. In my mind that's overpriced by a factor of at least two, if not three ... so an easy pass for me

    I've been using them for 22 years and I'm still on my second one - pretty good durability I'd say.

    I've had more taps go south than adaptors LOL

    It's great that we get the choice, and very nice to see Solar and Multi-band 6 options in the smaller size as well.

    I see yours is 20 Bar too ... the BGD-S5600 is only 10 Bar !

    Good topic - enjoyed your write up.

    I had 4 Smiths at one point.

    PRS-25 ; PRS-25W ; Everest Expedition ; PRS-29a.

    Another vote for the GW-5000U

    I like that the colour scheme on the face is neutral. Makes the watch more versatile to match whatever clothing in my book.
