just ordered my latest addition from seiyajapan... Seiko Alpinist SARB017



can't wait for it to reach

ahh don't get me wrong... i personally don't discriminate against the houses of Grand Seiko and Credor...
i was just highlighting a common public perception...
The fact that you have chosen a one over the popular Explorer II is testament to its merits... one simply doesn't spend that sort of money without proper thought and deliberations so power to you..
Ive worn my G-Shock proudly to the workplace and meetings plenty of times when i could've worn my Daytona instead...
Do take pics of your new acquisition 

I, too am a G-shock kind of guy. It goes so well with my hard cap and safety boots work attire.

I love mu G- shock to bits.  Master of G series is my fav.

Added on October 5, 2012, 10:49 pmOne more point I want to add:

Somehow wearing a a G-Shock esp the MoG series allows me to be with the boys. It is cool enough to garner WOWs without the embarassment of being seen as a show off or poser.

Daytona or Pam will never allow me to be with the boys.

Is there a watch fair in pavallion? My friend told me, but he seems doesn't know any details as well..

THE ART OF TIME at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, 4-14 October 2012, by Swiss Watch Gallery. Need to register if not mistaken.

Got special discounts?

Haha other way round for me... my crew all have several Rollies, PAMS, Corums, APs and what not...

My crew are mainly sweaty blokes, who earns slightly above the minimum wage. So no PAMs, APs or Rollie for me.

yes thats the common perception, as long as U are unaffected for it great.
@ sniper on the roof
  The demand for GS has been strong, and they are noting that to sell in countries that showed demand. The production of the GS are low anyway, for many years they cannot fill the local market demand. And don't u know Jap are very brand conscious too.

I don't doubt the desirability, merits or the quality of Seikos. Just saying that their marketing leaves a lot to be desired.

And their lineup's a mess    ... Pressage, Mechanical, Criteria, Spirit etc... Can anyone tell what's the message behind each lineup?

Also when they come out with a cult fav... the monsters for example....I can't brain why they dilute it by doing a monster-like Seiko 5.

the goal to cover entry level right up to luxury and to differentiate domestic and international market have created this.
profit is rolling in and demands is up, isn't a red flag to them to show their marketing is seriously wrong.
