    GS snowflake

    My local AD has one in, went down to try it on. Loveley dial, mesmerising sweeping movement, hand an markers all amazing.

    Titanium just felt too light though, deal breaker for me.

    You get used to it. Try one for a while, I will sell mine (just brought something today and shouldn’t have)!! Jokes aside it’s a real lovely piece

    The lightness contributes to the comfort, makes it so much better, especially in hot weather.

    The GS ti five link bracelet I've had is seriously comfortable due to its lack of heft. The issue I have is the limited adjustment, but when it fits, it's the most comfortable bracelet I've owned.

    The lightness is a definite plus in my books. The two problems I have with the Snowflake are its thickness and the dial itself which, as stunning as it is, I find a little too stark, almost bleak.

    Agreed, mine is very comfortable now I have the right fit.

    Interesting, I'd say it feels relatively thin, especially with the lugs which curve down sharply and wrap around the wrist. The dial comes to life in different lights, it can look plain white occasionally and then surprises in lower lights. But there's always the blued seconds hand to look at as it glides round. I found a blued gmt hand is unnoticeable as it doesn't visibly move.

    Proportions wise, I really liked it. Not too tall at all.
