Asking $1700, CONUS preferred, insured shipping included * Watch is on a tan large-scale alligator that looks great + a new pedestrian black calf strap * Has original papers from Japan (this is from when they were JDM only) – this watch was superseded by the SBGW031 (sapphire caseback, extended power reserve) and currently the SBGW231 (single GS only branding) – this is the original classic version for those that prefer a closed case back with the GS lion * In excellent condition, no dings, just the usual swirls that are unavoidable on the GS high polish, lots of pictures for you to see condition as well * Solid caseback with the Grand Seiko Lion hiding the Caliber 9S54, running at -8 to -10 per day, which for me is just fine on an occasional worn dress watch, winds like butter * Diameter 37.3mm, Thickness 11.4mm, with a dual-curved box shaped sapphire crystal with inside AR coating, beautiful beige dial, drilled lugs with a 19mm lug width * Review of this exact model: [https://www.watchprosite.com/horological-meandering/grand-seiko-sbgw001-a-review/17.468091.2802826/](https://www.watchprosite.com/horological-meandering/grand-seiko-sbgw001-a-review/17.468091.2802826/) * Review here of effectively the same watch: [https://monochrome-watches.com/grand-seiko-sbgw231-review-the-battle-of-elegant-time-only-watches-part-2-price/](https://monochrome-watches.com/grand-seiko-sbgw231-review-the-battle-of-elegant-time-only-watches-part-2-price/) * From previous owner, who purchased the watch in Japan in December 2024 - There are 3 imperfections that I noticed on the dial. 1. Light stain below 11 marker. 2. Spec of dirt/dust above “E” in Seiko. 3. On the 9 Marker there appears to be a smudge.  I honestly would have trouble seeing these, and I have added the alligator strap and the GS case to the mix.  I’ve owned a version of this watch 4 times, and may yet do so again! * Includes: * \--- Watch on TWB alligator strap * \--- additional black calf strap * \--- original warranty papers (filled out) * \--- blue leather GS zipper case from the GS Boutique I’m a private collector slimming my collection down and have 100+ transactions on WatchExchange – and I’m happy to talk to you on the phone or FaceTime once you are sure you’d like to proceed.  Straight sale strongly preferred and priced to reflect this.  Thank you for reading my post, and thanks also to the Mod community on WatchExchange.
