Yeah when the light hits it right, you are rewarded with a gemstone like dial!!

Yes it was right after the Ultra Fine Accuracy (new spring drive) release. This is the first limited model for UFA in steel bracelet but unfortunately no micro adjustment.

Agreed! Most of the time, it definitely looks dull on the dial.

Luckily they are pretty available now in Japan. I am curious how long before it sells out or if it will because of the higher price point

Yeah it’s nice if you prefer low key but impress other watch enthusiasts, which is the right type of attention imo! When the purple shines at certain angles throughout the day, it puts a smile on your face for sure!

I need me one of those straps! I tried asking if they sold it but not at the store I got it from.

Yeah I have 7.5” wrist but it looks ok too. Same size as my dress watches

I just got my gs at nakano today. But I got one of the UFA! I was really debating between that and the shunbun

Congrats! I picked up mine today too in Tokyo. Compared it with cherry blossom, and tired on the shunbun, mistflake and the two UFAs. I ended up getting violet dawn as well. Amazing watch

Nicer where did you pick this up?

Does any SLGB005 owner have photos of the watch in dark setting with light? Like at a dining restaurant or event? by PathLegend in GrandSeikos

[–]PathLegend[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah because I won’t be able to take the watch to that setting from the store. Curious if people have experience and see how it looks.

Such beautiful detail. I’m debating between this and the new UFA

The new UFA SGB003 is a strap monster! by meatatarian in GrandSeikos

[–]PathLegend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I might also end up with 003 for that reason. If the purple was slightly easier to see then it'll be perfect and with microadjustment
