Grand Seiko Cal. 4522-7010 Ca.70's
Finally after wait for 2 weeks more or less, my dream watch came true today in the morning about 10 o'clock delivery service from pos indonesia came to my office.
My GS (first GS with sapphire glass) has caliber 4522 model 7010, April 1970 editon, with calendar function, handwound movement, white satin dial, genuine gs crown and furnished with genuine vintage raised gs buckle and new black genuine seiko strap croco style, gold GS 18K emblem with mint condition and unpolish case
one of many best movement has ever made by Daini Seikosha in 1968 with 25 jewels, the last series of handwound movement used in GS more stable and reliable than caliber 44 and GS standard approved, high beat with 10 bps, running strong and keeping excellent time, quick set date
i think it's so simple, minimalis and formal style, "simply is the best", everlasting classic model, too hard to boring and forever young
The opinions from lots of watch collectors and fans of GS, they would like to choose manual wind watch rather than automatic one, no calendar rather than has calendar.
For the vintage GS watches, the complexity of maintenance is what we care about. So "easy is the best"!. What is your opinion ?
