I really wish I could pull this one off, but 44 x 15 mm is enormous. Even a SBGJ249, which is a 40 x 14 mm watch, felt very tall on my wrist.

It looks really nice, but get it because you like it, not because it’s a limited edition. GS comes out with a limited edition every other month it seems.

I saw the SBGC247 (chrono version of the LE) yesterday and the dial looks amazing in person. Too bad their chronos are soo thick.

LE wasn’t main criteria, just mentioned about the release. I really love the dial haven’t seen this dial in the sports version. True for the chrono version I dig the dial, but the pushers make it look very odd.

As with virtually all GS, it’s going to be an extremely well executed watch. And with the dial that’s typically used in their heritage/elegance collections, this one is even more intriguing. But if possible I would try it on (even the non-LE version) in person. GS sports watches are hefty to say the least and I personally do not have the wrist to pull it off haha.

That’s true the combination of the elegance collection dial and sports watch intrigued my interest

I dig it. Spring drive GMT with the Shubun dial, sounds good to me.
Haven’t seen it in person, but the pics look very nice.

Awesome watch but are any available outside japan?

I was listening to a podcast for one of the courses I’m taking and thought I’d share some cool stuff about building habits:

- Willpower is not as effective in making a long term change compared to building habits

- Reduce friction (eg much more likely to go to gym if it’s 5 mins away vs 10)

- Take an existing habit and add your new habit onto it

- Use chaos and stressful times to rethink practical decisions

- To break bad habits, add friction (eg phone & charger away at night)

Just got in the Direnzo Mondial and I'm blown away by the quality and "feel" on the wrist, especially with the integrated bracelet. It's not my favorite dial, but feels great on the wrist for $700 and noticeably above other microbrands in my collection (Zelos, Traska)

Anyone here into cleaning / Repairing their old watches, like deconstruct and then reassemble? Starting to get into it and it’s been a lot of fun. I bought my first real watch “Sarb033” 4 months ago and now I’ve fallen down a fun watch rabbit hole. Thanks Obama.
