Now I get the corporate & product difference between S and GS. It sounds like the same craftsmanship difference between Lexus models and the limited Lexus LFA, made by the very best craftsman in a separate plant. I bought a GS version. It was one of the the greatest moments of my life as I saved 10 years to buy that watch. I flew from Amsterdam to London and took a coffee after 3 hours went back. Now I can do a little research and hopefully find out what what she is worth.
Great that will fetch you some cash. *I used to be a collector, but I liquidated my collection to venture into real estate. In January, I acquired homes in Malibu for $65million, and the returns on investment far exceed what I earned as a collector.
How did you grow your portfolio to $65m, I'm impressed, I have a lump sum in the bank, the rates are not impressive so I'm moving it, what's your cash flow like?
Kevin needs to stop cutting off the expert. I want to learn about the watches. There were several times the GS guy was trying to highlight something and Kevin cut him off mid-sentence. I'm a fan of yours, Kevin, but please let the man finish!
Kevin is a very trump-esque fellow, I imagine in his private life he isnt listening to people for that long, just says what he wants to. I believe that really shows when hes talking to people who arent working for him.
@@damachine3 What are you talking about? I didnt mention any politics. Kevin is like Trump, if kevin finds something mundane about a watch for the first time, he would say 'nobody knew' (imagine trump flailing his arms saying that lol). He has a lot of the same mannerisms.
Always enjoy Kevin’s content when it comes to watches…thank you Kevin for sharing this…Grand Seiko is not only about dials…but also the movement etc…amazing perfection at its best…
Hi Kevin, love your content, and your consistent uploads are much appreciated. Your recent videos are at 1080p and I wanted to suggest to consistently filming at 4K. 4K became more accessible nowadays and also for filming a standard. It would help us appreciate the timepieces more. Keep up the good work.
Grand Seiko is certainly distinctive with their eye-catching, intriguing highly finished craftsmanship and designs and movements. In my opinion, they represent real value when compared to the standard Swiss brands.
My watch was purchased 2 years ago from MAMACOO and, to this day, it still looks and runs as well as it did the day it arrived. That movement has never missed a beat despite never having been serviced. I can't complain about that.
My SBGJ249 has been a pleasure to wear. Swapped the metal band to a strap for more casual daily wear. Case looks great front and back and the dial just pops in the sun. It's my only mechanical watch but also my favorite.
Been watching your videos for a while now and was inspired to start a collection. Started with the AMZWATCH, its specs for price and clean looks, now am looking for a dress watch to add.
Went shopping for the Spring Drive Chronograph SBGC275 and this would be my first big boy watch purchase. Really spectacular. I shop 5 hours after this video drops and it is already sold out.
Proud owner of 2 of them showcased here, the SBGL277 (1st watch) and the SBGC275 (5th watch) I LOVE EM! Outstanding quality, design and accuracy. Thanks for the vid Kevin.🤩👋👋👋
I just watched something with price points I would never buy but it was interesting. Good job, Joe! Very apropos that Mr. O'Leary has an ad - on his own channel, LOL - for watch insurance. I like Kevin and maybe he has a good plan for reducing the US Debt. As for Grand Seiko, I totally admire the craftsmanship. Spring Drive, non-precious metals, distinctive and classic face, - that would be my choice.
Thank you for this video. Now, I totally understand the difference between Seiko and Grand Seiko. Similar names but very different details between these brands. Love the diamond shaped cases on some of these Grand Seiko models as this really helps to differentiate their brand design (aside from amazing dials and also insanely accurate movements). These releases are mind blowing. Wonderful video!
Beyond gorgeous, every one of these pieces, my favourite GS at the moment is actually one that I own, the SBGJ275. Looking forward to grabbing another GS soon! Hopefully at Teddy's store.
I love how he has made a special watch band a part of his personal brand. I did this with a series of watches made by Nixon a long time ago when they started making "The Rocker" with multi piece fat leather bands. Mixed and matched until I had my own 100% unique band that nobody else had. It was a HUGE conversational piece amongst my peers at the time. FUN STUFF!
I bought a watch from amzwatch lightly used for my last milestone birthday. Don't wear it as much as it deserves, but not afraid to, either. It's stunning . Good taste, Sir.
Now I get the corporate & product difference between S and GS. It sounds like the same craftsmanship difference between Lexus models and the limited Lexus LFA, made by the very best craftsman in a separate plant.
got my 39mm with the white dial on the 3-link "Bader" bracelet watch on MAMACOO 3 weeks ago and am loving it to pieces. Absolute fantastic watch that wears super comfortable on my 6.75 inch wrist. Chose the 3-link over the 5-link bracelet for the toolless quick adjustment. Way more comfortable than my Longines Hydroconquest 41 mm.
DIAL NOTE!!! The SBGC275 dial motif reflects the morning view of the Hotaka Moutain range, its manufacturing site. Kevin would love saying that about a dial.
If I understand correctly, Grand Seiko has the more trained employees of Seiko (10+ years). Then what about the Seiko Spring Drive? I have a Seiko Spring Drive, not a Grand Seiko Spring Drive so I am curious where the quality difference is there. (It's a < 2012 one but still....)
I am a huge fan of Seiko, and GS. Have a number of 9f movements. Outstanding accuracy! Have a few spring drives. The sbga413, and 429 both run at plus .5 sec a day. Have an older sbga111 that runs at 0. Amazing watches. Then we have high beats. My sla039 with a 8L55 movement ran at plus 14 sec. Really? Went back to Japan , to be regulated. Now plus 7. Traded in my shunbun for a black birch. Love the birch. Understated, quality watch! Very happy with it.........except......the high beat runs about plus 6 sec a day. Why???? I have old Seiko divers with 4R movements that run at plus 3. Just got an omega ti seamaster planet ocean. Believe from 2011. So far it looks like it is running at minus 1 sec. Kind of what I should be getting from my black birch😠
For all of you guys saying “Kevin is interrupting the guy”, put yourself into the shoe of a buyer trying to buy the watch. If I get surprised by how good dials are, I am not holding my emotions on “oh really amazing dials” until salesmen finish explaining the technical movement nuances to me. Kevin is playing that role of the buyer here. This is not an interview. The seller is changing the topics as necessary to the buyer’s (Kevin) emotion. That is how it works even in a real store. Your audience is constantly surprised by the various look and feel of the watch, not the spec sheet.
I was waiting to hear micro adjust clasp 🤷♂️ I own 3 GS that I love but I still refuse to buy anymore until they introduce a micro adjustment on the bracelets. At least on the sports models put a tool less micro adjust on the clasp.
Seiko can provide quality with great appearance for the whole family and if dad and mom wants to splurge they have something that’ll get ur attention. Who needs a Rolex they can keep them
Grand Seiko's are so good and they offer so much value compared to its swiss counterparts. I will own one at some point and that's my motivation to work
Kevin never missing an opportunity to not let the guy finish a sentence.
Yes! He reminds me of Producer Michael.
does he realize this?
Really annoying and also rude!
It's called overinflated ego. Lol
He is excited about it, hence the eagerness, which means he really belives how good Grand Seiko's watches are.
Look at Kevin 🤔 I remember when Grasshopper introduced Mr Wonderful to Grand Seiko 😎
Did you mean cockroach
He will eventually become a butterfly 😆 🤣

I have a financial expert (trader) who grows my liquid assets. I then reinvest the weekly payouts into real estate and long-term ETFs.
Sure, could you please share her name with me or any details so I can look her up online? Thanks!
She is well known as - Diana Leayani Lara. please do your own research.

Kevin IS an expert 😀
Stop interrupting your guests.
When you’re that rich you deserve to interrupt anyone you want😂
He always does
I find the guy so irritating!
He went to Teddy's store and called him a cockroach to his face. Maybe he was just being playful but I found it a little bit disrespectful.

Proud owner of the Shunbun and Tentagraph here. I keep looking at these masterpieces. The design details and craftsmanship are stunning.

Bought an SLGH013 on a recent trip to Japan. Couldn't be happier. The dial is a work of art

Oh my god, the red dial watch... amazing
Ordered one. Delivery in July.
Grand Seiko is truly crushing lately. Incredible to have such diversity of styles here and to have so many that are absolutely top notch.
If by crushing it you mean sitting still like stagnant pond water then yes… absolutely crushing it. 😂
Did anyone realize Kevin was such a dial guy?
I hear he prefers red bands as well, can anyone confirm?
Words on the street that he's considering wearing two watches at the same time, needs confirmation though
I was wondering if he approves on Grand Seiko polishing……..
@@DapperProfYes, he strongly likes red bands. They're all he basically wears.
Very off piste of him
I love the Red Chrono. The color changing and textured dial looks so good!
Ordered one. Delivery in July.
Such beautiful watches! I am a big GS fan!
I own 2 GS watches in my collection a vintage H-B and a Modren H-B..And I love both of them..❤❤
Kevin’s insistence on letting everyone know he thinks hes interesting or intelligent is stunning
Lol
Alpha!
GS has been crushing it with their dials and world class movements.
My watch was purchased 2 years ago from MAMACOO and, to this day, it still looks and runs as well as it did the day it arrived. That movement has never missed a beat despite never having been serviced. I can't complain about that.
Love your channel with so many stellar watches! For me the AMZWATCH’ watch is my favorite. Keep the videos coming. Thanks.
Thank you for making high quality videos!Love amzwatch ’s watches
I really appreciate this video. It was very insightful. It certainly highlighted their new lineup’s quality. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
What thoughts lmao, it's always dial this dial that
Perhaps you watched a different video. Though he did focus ‘a bit more’ on dials, So… fair enough.
bought my first seiko 2 years ago and now im heading for a grand seiko. i always knew that they are different!
I'm really getting into GS. Awesome quality and very unique without any of the games that other ADs play.
My SBGJ249 has been a pleasure to wear. Swapped the metal band to a strap for more casual daily wear. Case looks great front and back and the dial just pops in the sun. It's my only mechanical watch but also my favorite.

look at my note about the dial. You could really impress Kevin what that little bit of verbal knowledge.
Wonderful, entertaining and very enjoyable. Thank you.
When I get to that price range Grand Seiko will be my first purchase. All their watches are just gorgeous works of art.
Kevin and Joe, can you please convince Grand Seiko to make a new bracelet with a strong taper and micro-adjusts?
I like their bracelets. They have a strong 90s Japanese vibe that is so classic to me.
I second that
@@kirkwcowgillbut the clasps are dogsh*t
i love you so much! I recently just found your nkuwan and i’m in love!! Your videos are so fun and you energy is just MWAH! keep living your life

Thank you so much nkuwan for taking us shopping🛍…my wish list just got longer
Amazing 👏
Outstanding.

How have I put off buying a grand seiko watch for so long. These are incredible
Thanks Mr.Wonderful on you content on Grand Seiko...
Don't forget to buy his crypto.
rolex and other swiss brands just cannot compete here, id take any of these over any patek ap rolex jq, etc, vintage or not
Watches are so delicate and intricately designed, so I have intense respect and admiration for MAMACOO watch makers
All dat AMZWATCH watches sssssoooooooo gorgeous！
100% totally agree
I bought a watch from amzwatch lightly used for my last milestone birthday. Don't wear it as much as it deserves, but not afraid to, either. It's stunning . Good taste, Sir.
Now I get the corporate & product difference between S and GS. It sounds like the same craftsmanship difference between Lexus models and the limited Lexus LFA, made by the very best craftsman in a separate plant.
I like this analogy! Makes great sense
Just got my first GS and i am in love😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
It's great seeing the things that you can't get because of limited quantities. A bit surprised about the less expensive models that are also limited.
They are limited because they know it’s hard enough to find a sucker willing to buy 1 of them let alone sell 100 to 1,000 of them.
Wow that first one is nuts
I have never been disappointed since I became a customer of MAMACOO. Their watches are of exceptional quality.
9:54
Kevin: Price?
GS: Ten thousand seven hundred.
Kevin: Very affordable.
I really like that second watch from the Tokyo line.
And I generally like curves over angles, but there is something about it that pops.
Beautiful watches
Nice
What’s the point of wearing only 1 glove when you feel it so well with both hands
Your broke mind won't understand
i think its not to protect it but to wipe it clean
Did Kevin ever mention that he’s a dial guy?
got my 39mm with the white dial on the 3-link "Bader" bracelet watch on MAMACOO 3 weeks ago and am loving it to pieces. Absolute fantastic watch that wears super comfortable on my 6.75 inch wrist.

man i love these watches
Great choices.
No more spring drives?
When it comes to fine imitation watches, mamacoo delivers. I've bought from them several times, and I've never been let down.
Does anyone know the watch the gentleman is wearing ? Gold with black dial. It’s stunning !
Joe is such a class act, always 👏
That tiger mane is amazing
Great interview. Good question about the difference between seiko and Grand Seiko. Is Credor and King Seiko also made in the Grand Seiko Factory?

MAMACOO has set a new standard for replica watches. Their craftsmanship is impeccable. Its hard to tell the difference from the originals

When people are saying #nkuwan is a better option,I very much agree!
So can someone explain why the one glove??? They touch the watches with their other hand so fingerprints are not a concern.
GS is my favorite watch brand.

I LOVE UR VIDEOS ITS REALLY GREAT
i usually don't like kevin on shark tank, but when it comes to watches, i'm his fan.
Ever since I bought a watch from MAMACOO, My question is if it's this hard to tell them apart, what is the point of owning an authentic watch?
When people are saying MAMACOO is a better option for buying a watch,I very much agree!
please bring 4k, video quality isnt good enough
I was waiting to hear micro adjust clasp 🤷♂️
I own 3 GS that I love but I still refuse to buy anymore until they introduce a micro adjustment on the bracelets. At least on the sports models put a tool less micro adjust on the clasp.
The video kinda shows the subtle dial on the GMT. I think it’s a winner.
Good vid Kev
I'm genuinely impressed with how close MAMACOO were able to replicate every aspect of this very very goofy looking classic watch.
Grand Seiko needs a special line designed by Swiss designers. Would be nice collaboration. Accuracy meets Elegence.
Seiko can provide quality with great appearance for the whole family and if dad and mom wants to splurge they have something that’ll get ur attention. Who needs a Rolex they can keep them
Mr. wonderful
Grand Seiko's are so good and they offer so much value compared to its swiss counterparts. I will own one at some point and that's my motivation to work
I trust Japanese engineering the most in the world. More than German
Since GS is now more known than ever, I bet there watches will skyrocket in price in a few years, once they gain full recognition. What models?
