I have heard of similar when people walk in for a new audi quattro and once they see price tag they walk out with used jeep.

He didn’t say which Omega he was looking at but decent odds the GS is more money so this doesn’t even make sense

Will do. Probably going to marinate on it while I travel for business this week and drop the hammer this coming weekend.

Good for you. Great choice.
I fell in love with GS by going to an AD and looking at them side by side with other watches. Side by side they really stand out.

Grand Seiko is a fantastic choice. I am a bit of a fan although I don't own one. I've put several on the wrist that friends own.

IMHO, give them another decade and they'll be giving a poke to VC, AP and PP.

Thought/question I have been wondering for a while below.

I am in NYC but open to surrounding areas if anyone has any jeweler suggestions.

No idea if this is a stupid thought but figured it would be worth seeing if anyone has any experience or thoughts on this. TIA.
