What a great review!! Your explanations are so clear. I haven’t heard such a great explanation of what Evolution 9 means. I am looking at buying that watch slga017. Did it come with the blue strap and metal? Are you selling it 😅?
Hi. Sorry for the late reply. The blue strap i bought after market. It does help reduce the weight a bit of the watch. I do have this currently for sale over at WatchUseek if you take a look. or you can message me on Instagram @jtmwatches
Beautiful watch, interesting video. Thank you for posting. Regarding legibility, how do you find the dauphine hands of evo 9 vs GS44? I always thought GS44 hour and minute hands were quite hard to distinguish when glancing at the watch, especially when they aligned with indices. Any such issues with your evo 9 piece? And regarding comfort, how have you found the bracelet? Thanks!
Thanks. The Evo 9 hands are much more legible and it is super easy to tell time at a glance without anu issues. The bracelet gives the watch a more robust, chunky feel. It's well made, but I wish it tapered down a bit more. Overall, I havent looked back since swapping it out for a leather strap which also helps reduce the weight a bit.
Both watches are beautiful. I own the SBGP001. I love the watch. I don't think Seiko makes a nicer quartz watch. I would love to own an Evolution 9 watch, especially one with a wavy blue dial. But I just can't justify spending that much on a watch.
Yeah, 9f quartz remains the best place for value in GS. You get the same great finishing and super accurate movement for a 1/4 of the price. @@nerychristian
