# SBGF005 Video: [https://youtube.com/shorts/PnkhZO2SerY?feature=share](https://youtube.com/shorts/PnkhZO2SerY?feature=share) For sale is a rare neo-vintage reference from Grand Seiko, the black and gold SBGF005. These don't come up for sale frequently at all anywhere, let alone in the US (believe this is the first one I've seen on Reddit). This watch is driven by the 8J56 movement, which features a 5 year battery life (instead of the 3 year of the later 9F series) as well as an independently adjustable hour hand so that changing the time will not require re-syncing the watch (also something the 9F dropped). Additionally, the movement is still a high-accuracy quartz (HAQ) and still rated to the same +/- 10 seconds per year as the later generations. The size is a very well-proportioned 38mm in width, with 44mm lug-to-lug and only 9.5mm thickness. The lug width is 19mm. This example is in excellent condition, and comes with the orignal box and papers along with the Grand Seiko buckle. **Imgur Album**: [https://imgur.com/a/sbgf005-OljARGu](https://imgur.com/a/sbgf005-OljARGu) **Timestamp:** [https://imgur.com/a/EDN9GiT](https://imgur.com/a/EDN9GiT) Asking **$985 including fully insured shipping in the US**, paid via wire, Zelle, or Venmo F&F. I am happy to do a video call to show the watch. I will ship internationally and only charge the difference in cost on top (Wise accepted for international payments). I’m not interested in trades. Feel free to reach out with any questions!
