Grand Seiko review by an actual watchmaker.

Have you climbed Mount Iwate? Do you have a spiritual connection to Mount Iwate? Have you visited all 38 shrines in Kyoto? Do you speak Japanese? How many Grand Seiko movements have you overhauled? Do you polish Zaratsu? Are you a samurai? Do you have a katana? Do you have a Japanese wife? Have you at least had a kebab at Akihabara Station? No to all? So why in the world do you think you are qualified to review Grand Seiko? Yet we did. Garage Horology Getting ready means dedicating a workspace where you will practise your horology: a clean bench, good lighting, no carpet. A storage box. An Excel sheet with a list of individual parts you will be handling. And most importantly: a pen and a sketchbook. Are you “too old,” have shaky hands and poor eyesight? If you can do even the simplest, most amateurish drawing, you are ready to immerse yourself in the wonderful world of watchmaking. Regifting Seiko 5 Yes, we are giving away one brand-new Seiko “Wogmaster,” coming from a good home 🙂 To enter the draw, simply leave a comment underneath this video. Everyone is welcome — Australians and overseas viewers alike. The draw and winner announcement will take place on Friday, February 20. Also: we are giving away this petite Longines orphan. More about that next time.
