So in the same ball park as a Rolex Non date submariner , or an Omega globemaster with the master chronometer movement .
@JB mainly the depreciation factor , but they just dont look special enough.
I've just been on the Seiko website and clicked view all and there they all are the Grand Seiko along side watches at £149 and visually on the website they don't obviously stand out as being Prestige pieces .
I cant put my finger on it.
Maybe it's the lack of heritage in comparison with the Swiss , maybe it is just ingrained snobbery .
But that watch at 5.5k doesn't inspire in the same way .
