No, they do seem oddly in-limbo, with just Heathrow T5 and a couple of shops in outlet centres.
That ice blue GS dial is gorgeous but bloody HELL I wish they would put a little bit of their dial development into their bracelets.
To be fair that is actually an upgraded bracelet to the older ones, with a new clasp that lies totally flat (it’s a little odd that the old ones didn’t really, but it was always presented as a feature in photos). It also has an unusual wide bracelet design that plays with the proportions. They released a completely new bracelet with the white Omiwatari, though for me it’s too sparkly to choose over leather. There was also a beads of rice bracelet recently, again not for me but they’re not standing still. Some won’t be happy until they get Rolex style microadjustment, but I can’t say I’d prefer a bulky clasp on mine, given the fit and comfort level it has when properly adjusted.
That Grand Seiko dial is simply off the charts!
Im finding this an appealing package, and not a huge uplift in price over the standard tricompax.
