Love it - how do you feel about grey market. I guess need to money up get regular so I can service?

If I don't quit my job hopefully next time I am in Japan I get something

Looked at Grand Seiko diver but not time to size lol

Grey is great as long as you understand you are essentially insuring yourself during the warranty period. I bought my Good Planet at the Tourbillon Boutique in San Francisco when they had just been out about a week so that is one watch I paid MSRP for. The service interval can be moved out to about 7-8 years on that movement without issue.

Japan has GREAT watch shopping especially used, not as good as HK but very good.

You should visit the Grand Seiko Boutique on Madison Ave it is a great experiance. My favorite GS folks are the people at Timeless Luxury north of Dallas.
