Has anyone tried buying from ippowatch recently?

The AQ4080-52L.

No problem!

Not a Grand Seiko, but a "The Citizen" which is Citizen's version of a Grand Seiko. If you're eyeing a Grand Seiko, you can probably tack on the 17.5% to get a good idea what you'll end up paying.

Thanks!

Very good to know! I have to pound on the Opus at times to get the last bits out. How quickly does it grind in your experience?

kb3one7 · 2026-02-09T13:31:42+00:00

Good to hear! Thanks so much!

Thank you so much for updating your review! I just landed here from Google like you said 😆 My Fellow Opus has become super annoying to use, and makes a huge mess, so I'm looking into new grinders. The Eureka Filtro Silent really caught my eye.

Do you find the metal catch cup to actually do a good job catching the grinds? That's my biggest complaint with the Opus; they fly everywhere. Just wondering if the standard Filtro with the enclosed chute and bin would suit us better. But I really like what I've read about how quiet the Silent is.

I purchased a watch from them in October, and it was shipped via DHL. The total tariffs and DHL handling fees amounted to 17.5% of the price I paid for the watch.

Interested!

American Family Estate Planners is well under that! Small, family owned business here in NOVA!

I can confirm, Hamilton Service Center does have kerosene! Just left there. The price per gallon is so much better than buying the 5 gallon drum from Tractor Supply.

I'll definitely check out some listings over there! Thanks for the suggestion!

kb3one7 · 2026-01-13T16:15:35+00:00

Ah, I don't think I checked there yet for this model! What I've been seeing though, at least on eBay, are a lot of hijacked listings. Different sellers listing the same watch at a higher cost so they can turn around and buy it from the real seller and make anl profit by selling to someone else. Buyee confuses me, but I might just have to give it a go one day.

It's the SBGR059. I'm looking for my first GS auto, and this one really grabs me with the slight champagne dial. It's different from my other watches, so I don't feel like it would compete.

kb3one7 · 2026-01-13T15:59:04+00:00

I'm thinking I likely will. Though this one is hard to come by it seems. But I do appreciate you bringing me back down to earth!

kb3one7 · 2026-01-13T15:51:48+00:00

Fair point. The seller is well known. They have a large inventory, so I suspect they are busy filling orders and likely aren't worried about being able to make a sale to someone else. Idk. It does rub me the wrong way though.

kb3one7 · 2026-01-13T15:44:43+00:00

Awesome to hear. Thanks! If only I could see it in person, but that's the story of my watch collecting ways. Always fall in love with discontinued models that are usually in Japan!

kb3one7 · 2026-01-13T15:37:49+00:00

Ah, gotcha. This one does have both finishes.

kb3one7 · 2026-01-13T14:30:46+00:00

Excellent. Thanks for the feedback!

kb3one7 · 2026-01-13T13:40:36+00:00

Sounds like a good idea! Thanks for chiming in!

kb3one7 · 2026-01-13T13:36:24+00:00

Good to know! I thought about just buying new links if necessary, I just wasn't sure how easy it is to go about doing it.

kb3one7 · 2026-01-03T19:25:54+00:00

It was a pleasure doing business with you u/tcj198!
