Sherwood’s Grand Seiko Snowflake and its 'calming presence'

Sherwood’s Grand Seiko Snowflake and its "calming presence"

Look, full disclosure. We did not know (or indeed pay) Sherwood to give us this particular answer.

But having said that, it’s quite nice to hear someone say they bought a watch off your review. And honestly, of the many (many) watches I’ve reviewed over the years, you could do a whole lot worse than the Grand Seiko SBGA211 ‘Snowflake’. It’s a real modern classic, and a watch that’s full of character and emblematic of what Grand Seiko is all about. Or, as Sherwood puts it:

When I look at my watch it’s an immediately calming Snowflake presence that just reminds me of what’s not in front of my desk.

And Sherwood’s absolutely right — it is an under-the-radar piece, and the Spring Drive technology is absolutely mesmerising. Well done on a great watch, Sherwood, and here’s to the next one.

Im scared owning a grand seiko, the sweeping sec hand is so mesmerizing i would be staring at it for a very long time and wasting my time just staring at GS watch... Sad but true... It always happens to me when im wearing my ulysse 36, 000vph.. How much more with this GS!😂🤣😂😂

Very nice mate. Would you wear it on a leather strap?

What do you think of the Rolex Yacht-Master 40 with a grey dial?
