As per title, I made an unexpected purchase with this great watch on my first trip to Japan. While paying a visit to the Grand Seiko flagship store was certainly on my list, I wasn’t expecting to leave with a new watch on my wrist. However, with both this trip marking a significant moment in my wife’s and my life (basically me recently getting a new lease on life for the second time in a few years) and the SBGA407’s mesmerizing beauty, I felt like it had to be. Reading up on the ambition and innovative technology that went into this movement made it an easy decision in the end. What a watch. I hope you guys enjoy the photo, much love goes out to the community for introducing me to the brand in the first place!

Unfortunately, it’s really hard to capture the light blue hue of the dial with a camera…

    The dial is actually a light blue color, but it’s so hard to capture for some reason. But yes, it’s gorgeous!

      Better choice than the usual hyped models, you know what they are ;) The SBGA407 is a gorgeous watch with a classy case. The dial hardware, kit-kat indices, is preferable as well. Much prefer SS with a leather strap. If I buy a second SD I’d have to choose between this and the SBGA373 with the champagne dial. Wear it in good health.
