Grand Seiko Four Seasons "Winter" SBGA415 - Why I bought a Grand Seiko - B&B

Disclaimer: This review is in no way incentivized by Feldmar Watches (where I purchased this from), the Grand Seiko brand or any other entity. I purchased this watch brand new. All opinions here are my own. I've been looking at Grand Seiko for quite a while now, and their rise in popularity over the last 2 years has pushed me to learn more about this brand and their offerings. Like most, I was drawn to their dials first, and the Snowflake dial frequently stopped me in my tracks. But I was primarily looking for dive watches and sports watches at the time, and couldn't really connect with their divers when I tried them on. But after satisfying all my sports watch cravings, I came back to Grand Seiko for something a little different. It came down to the Spring and the Winter, as I find these dials a bit more attractive, and I also love Titanium watches. The Spring is the more popular of the two, and has quite the fan club. The Winter draws less attention, has a more subdued aesthetic, and is actually quite appropriately named. By the time I had decided what I wanted, it seems that demand for these models had picked up quite a bit. But unlike with a Rolex, I was able to find someone willing to take my money in exchange for a product (which was shocking!), and I was put on a non-fictional wait-list, and received my watch ahead of schedule. I purchased this watch from Feldmar Watches in LA, and I want to thank Jimmy at Feldmar for an excellent experience. And no, this video is not affiliated or sponsored by them in any way.

The written review has now been revised to reflect this mistake. Don't forget to check out the full review here - https://www.beansandbezels.com/review...
