Looks like Seiko has listened to the fans, as the watches got quite a bit thinner (about 10mm, with the now sweet point 38,5,mm diameter) and the power reserve moved to the back. There are 4 new models, out of which the SBGY003 is the only one in a somewhat reasonable pricing category, 7600 USD. Hand-winding, with 72 hours power reserve.
Here's a pic, I rather like it:
There'll be only 700 of it.
