I’m there , thank you

 

Regarding a different watch, it’s kind of weird Jomashop does not sell a single grand Seiko. 

The first place I went to when I was thinking about getting a gray market model

It's funny many of these places don't care for seiko which is a real shame.

Oh they have many Seiko from $100-$400 but not a single grand Seiko

 Which really surprises me as Jomashop Carries a lot of high end watches

I kind of use them as a price guide on genuine and trusty time as a price guide for reps

I use indices myself, swiss watch expo.  https://www.swisswatchexpo.com/new-arrivals?mc_cid=8e08fa45d2&mc_eid=f0ecb7afc6 for gen and perfect clones for reps as they are generally a bit cheaper but i usually buy elsewhere...

@ballandbiscuit  I don’t know if I could bring myself to spend that much money on a Seiko.

Definitely not new as they don’t hold their value as much as others.

I would consider a gray market purchase thou

If I remember right you have one don’t you?

@Mike R Seiko is a brand that sells watches from $45 to $100K.  Grand Seiko is one of my favorite watches.  I bought mine used and absolutely love it. What about these beauties:

Much more reasonable. I would think they have already taken their major depreciation hit 

have you ever purchased from Krono

I have been dreaming about Seiko all week. I feel like I better get one before they get priced where they belong!

I feel the same way but another wiser member reminded me that there will always be a good deal somewhere.  That's the nature of this hobby people buy-wear-sell or they buy-wear-keep.  Happy hunting!!!

 Maybe it’s me but I just don’t see them becoming more valuable then some of the well known Swiss brands.

But then again at one point in time that’s what the automobile industry thought too.

They never thought they would lose the market share they have in the last 50 years

I think they hold their own compared to say most Tags.  They are beautiful pieces and worth buying, if you do buy one I highly doubt you will resell it as they definitely grow on you.  People who know watches know Grand Seiko and are very fond of them.

Agreed. My experience with Deep Blue has been less than salutary, however.

Part of me wishes you would change your avatar/sig because I always stop and stare. Then the rest of me kicks in and asks wtf I'm thinking ;)

I have the same problem as you but removing her would be criminal and besides we love her. So with that I will leave you with the gif you posted for me on the Word Association thread October 12, shortly after I made this goddess my avatar.  What was this thread about? I keep forgetting every time I watch this:
