The Hi-Line is extremely similar to the Seiko Lord Marvel though, as the Citizen Deluxe was to the Marvel. They came out practically in the same years though and I don't know enough about them to know which came first. They are very similar designs, down to the script on the Hi-Line looking super close to the Lord Marvel.
I'd argue that they're far more inline with Citizen's own Hi-Line references. Grand Seiko didn't invent dauphin hands or high polished dial furniture.
