My first ever GS - the classic Snowflake. I am absolutely in love with this thing, the dial is a work of art in itself and the perfectly polished indices and hands just add to the overall effect. I love the depth of detail that has gone into the watch, right down to the polished edges on the dial cut-out where the power reserve sits, and the two textures on the power reserve register itself. The bracelet is similarly stunning and maintains the contrast of polished and brushed surfaces, right down to the polished bevel on the edge of each link. As an aside I find it amazing that they've managed to polish titanium to such a high shine, my other Ti watch (an X-33) is a grungy dark grey by comparison.
To cap it all, the movement is a beauty and it's currently running well within Seiko's stated accuracy of 1spd: it's gained 1.6s in 23 days, which is pretty damn impressive. I also find the smooth movement of the second hand and the steadily-spinning wheels mesmeric to watch. Basically, I find myself having to check it twice whenever I need to know the time: once to be blown away by the watch's beauty, and a second time because I've distracted myself and forgotten to note what time it is... Some pics from the other week:
