Hey folks, Up today I have a piece borne out of the hardcore vintage inspired SBGW Elegance Collection. This model featuring the silver tone dial is only through boutiques, similar to the SBGW235 The beads of rice bracelet on GS are by far the best in the business; think vintage comfort with modern build quality, so you’re essentially getting the look and comfort of a vintage piece with better build quality and QC. What this piece lacks in ruggedness, it makes up for in sophistication and panache. Coming in at a 37.5mm, the watch steals the show when on wrist as it oozes class and harkens to a more accessible Calatrava aesthetic. On my 7.5” wrist the watch feels just at home as a speedmaster, especially for the category it fills. As with most GS, pictures don’t do this piece justice. The watch is in excellent overall condition with the minor surface wear to the case sides and comes as a full set with everything pictured. The only items missing are the pin and tubes for the mid link on 2 links, about a $40 replacement. Regardless of the above, the watch fits my 7.5” wrist and has an extra link readily available. To accommodate missing pin and tubes, I’m adjusting my asking price to $3599 shipped in Canada and US. Retail is $5700, and I’m well under market pricing, no trades on this one
