I think the comments there are being too kind. There's something about this release which isn't just unimpressive, but almost insulting. I'm sure some people will genuinely like that dial and the hands, and fair enough (though personally not my cup of tea), but the case is flat and featureless, the movement is old, the buckle is rubbish, the water resistance is non-existent, and the engraving is something I can't stand in a Grand Seiko, though at least they've been doing this particular travesty for a while...

And then there are the alternatives available for the price.

Even if I could get one, it'd be a hard pass.
