Model: Grand Seiko SBGY009 Condition: Excellent condition, no noticeable wear Includes: Full Kit Price: $4999 Details: Up for grabs is a near mint Grand Seiko SBGY009. This is an absolutely stunning piece that embodies some of the best of what Grand Seiko has to offer, while sidestepping almost every issue people have with the brand. You get a top tier Grand Seiko dial with a rich almost holographic texture, Zaratsu polish on the iconic 44gs case, and the legendary spring drive movement. Don't like grand Seiko bracelets? This comes on beautiful crocodile leather strap. Spring drive models too chunky for you? This hand wound version clocks in at a sleek 10.5mm thin. Not a fan of the power reserve indicator? It's on the back. All of upside, none of the downside. I'm open to trades, but picky. Always interested in grand seikos, and might consider a ming, an omega hour vision, or other interesting non-dive watches. Album: https://imgbb.com/album/ZSy9ZK

	Country of Origin:	Japan

The company was founded in 1881, when Kintarō Hattori opened a watch and jewelry shop called "K. Hattori" (服部時計店 Hattori Tokeiten?) in the Ginza area of Tokyo, Japan. Eleven years later, in 1892, he began to produce clocks under the name Seikosha (精工舎 Seikōsha?), meaning roughly "House of Exquisite Workmanship". According to Seiko's official company history, titled "A Journey In Time: The Remarkable Story of Seiko" (2003), Seiko is a Japanese word meaning "exquisite" or "success" ("exquisite" is usually written 精巧 from Chinese jīngqiǎo, while the meaning "success" is usually written 成功 from Chinese chénggōng).

Seiko is perhaps best known for its wristwatches, all of which were at one time produced entirely in-house. This includes not only major items such as microgears, motors, hands, crystal oscillators, batteries, sensors, LCDs but also minor items such as the oils used in lubricating the watches and the luminous compounds used on the hands and the dials.
