Grand Seiko SBGX261.

[P9CLY]

Not had a newish dress/Sport watch for a while and rather like the look of the SBGX261.
I have had a similar one many years ago with more text on the dial.Tbh the lesser text dial version doesn't concern me.
Watched a few reviews which were very favourable,1 comparing to the Rolex Explorer,that was just the chaps opinion Im not interested in taking that into the discussion as that gets of track.
What sort of prices can I expect to be paying for a recent one if I post a WTB.

Thanks Guys.

Paul, I think I got about £1500 for my mint almost brand new one but that was at least a year ago if not two.

Wish I still had it.

Thanks for that Mark much appreciated.It does look a fine dress watch & I like the 37mm size.

I would say it's more sporty than dress. If I was looking at dress I would go SBGW231 but price does go up a bit.

I think this is a fantastic watch, and if I didn’t already have a quartz GMT I would have added one.

If I was going to buy one, I would go new with a Japan seller on Chrono24. That works out about £1570 inc import charges. I did this with my SNGN003

In that case 11 have sold on eBay this year. Highest price £1,795, lowest price £1,100. I think £1,400 to 1,500 looks about right.

Just on your introductory remarks, having had one it’s definitely a sports watch rather than a dress watch.

Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend - they’re great!
