I can watch the second hand sweep all day long! Beautiful watch.

I got one about two weeks ago for my birthday. The dial and finishing is amazing. Mine runs consistently just under +0.2 (+0.17) per day. That beats all my other mechanical watches by a wide margin. It's a different thing altogether. I realize it's not purely mechanical but it's cool that it uses purely mechanical energy to run everything, including the IC. Anyway, I think it's a really cool addition to a watch collection.

I finally saw it in person and I’m so impressed. You really need to see the dial on person to understand. Pictures and videos just don’t capture it.

I have the sarw041 baby snowflake and I love it! It has the power reserve and the date. I bought this piece to see if eventually I will buy the Grand Seiko and I will definitely. Great review!!

Love the watch on my way to pick one up watching this on the way!

Love this watch....now if I could only afford it! The spring drive is the ultimate perfection of the mechanical watch. Agree regarding the clasp.

15:18 Yea not having a bunch of little holes in the clasp is a negative. Looks pretty Clean to me! Comes with two Half links which enables a perfect fit for any wrist.

Just purchased this beautiful watch. LOVE it. The attention to detail is spot on. It’s not for everyone- but an iconic watch nonetheless.

I got one slightly used for $2K and love it. It's a great watch.

I still want one so badly. My ultimate grail for the last 4 years now 🤩👌👍

The Seiko Snowflake is rather perfect. I like the show.

A Grand Seiko spring drive is my Grail. Congratulations on an excellent and balanced review. I especially enjoyed the power resurve action as most reviews just assume we've seen it (but where? No one else shows it.) Until I've saved enough for the big daddy GS I'll make do with my SARB033 baby GS.

When you have a reference accurate watch, you don't want it to stop, and that's when power reserve comes in use

Hi Oleg, great video. You should check out the seasons collection USA only release .
Four pieces to represent the four seasons. Winter is my favourite the sbga415👍

Awesome review oleg. Very clear explaination on the watch. Keep up the good work!

[michaelliu]

The movement is ridiculously amazing everytime when I wear it.

I think this is the best and most objective review of the Grand Seiko Spring Drive. Enjoyed the video. 😎

[matthewrikihana]

As per the screws and titanium, agree with Seiko. My glasses frames are titanium and the lens is held by screws but the nature of titanium means the screws don't bite tight as they would into steel. I'm always checking them as they do get loose.

Great review as usual, Oleg. I am waiting for the comparison with the baby snowflake. Anyway I haven't a GS in my collection yet, but if that moment will come, I think I will definetely be a Spring Drive movement, because from a technical point of view it's something unique.

Looking forward to your thoughts on the 2020 Grand Seiko Sports collection!
