# SBGE225 Video: [**https://imgur.com/a/0IP8v4S**](https://imgur.com/a/0IP8v4S) For sale is a rare Grand Seiko Spring Driven GMT model, reference SBGE225. This piece has a brushed sunburst dial that seems to alternate between silvery white and creamy silver, with blue and red accents in the text fonts and markers, which the blue GMT hand picks up nicely. The case is a mix of brushed and polished surfaces unlike the fully polished case of most Elegance Collection pieces. Given the way the highly domed “topcoat” sapphire crystal catches the light, toning down the case a bit was an excellent decision. The movement is the 9R66 Spring Drive with 72 hour power reserve, and the watch measures 40.2mm wide without the crown, with a 48.5mm lug to lug length and 19mm lug width. Wrist show is of the watch on my \~6.75" wrist for reference. The bracelet comes with 4 removable full-sized links and 2 removable half-sized links as well. This example was given an overhaul in April 2022 by Grand Seiko, and comes double boxed with the service papers and manual. **Imgur album**: [https://imgur.com/a/sbge225-gQqliiu](https://imgur.com/a/sbge225-gQqliiu) **Timestamp:** [https://imgur.com/a/j3uymrQ](https://imgur.com/a/j3uymrQ) As far as I can tell, there are none of this reference available outside Japan, and all are priced at $3900+ before shipping, duty, and tax. I’m asking **$3,495 shipped** in the US via wire, Zelle, or Venmo. Also happy to meet F2F, located north of Boston. I will ship internationally and only charge the difference in cost on top. I am not interested in trades. Please let me know if you have any questions!
