i saw one at jw the last time...

its nice and i think abt it from time to time, but its not unlikely that i'll buy

[nine_eleven]

but i was thinking of getting one straight from japan....

just a pity that the GS doesn't come with a glass caseback...

Previously got 1 watch boutique in Citylink carries some GS pieces. I think it's Emotus or something. However, I was told they are US version. I am not sure what's the differences.

However, I don't see the Spring Drive GMT "that I yearns so much for" in the shop.

Someday, I will get one when I have the money and a good offer presents itself!

if you understand the GS art, it is not bad considering the care and precision. However as you know, the resale value will never match one of a rolex.

I am keeping a eye out for a preowned piece, hopefully can find good price
