yes, Its an entry level JDM model. Though very similar to the SBGX259 / SBGX261 / SBGX263 you can buy over here. Hands & indices are indeed darker and duller than most other GS, almost look black in some pics .
High polished case is not ideal for a daily, but I wore a Plexiglass max bill for an extended period, and that didn't bother me too much . I'm not quite convinced I want a white face for a daily though .
What i do want is a nice quartz, 36-37mm, 43-46mm L2L, 100m WR, minimal, not too thick . currently between some kind of GS , or an older Aqua Terra , but cant seem to find a decent priced one . very keen to hear of any other suggestions people have

I’ve had a C24 alert set up for that first gen coaxial version 39mm Aqua Terra for ages. They used to be under two grand, they’re more like three now. The quartz ones shouldn’t be too hard to find? At least, I feel like I always see loads when I’m looking for the coaxial ones.
Edit: oh right, they’re two grand now…

Slightly odd to see a GS that doesn't have razor sharp hands at the points. Didn't know there were any that didn't, in fact. I guess it's an entry level JDM model? Still looks nice though, I like the dial texture.
Oh, from googling it seems it has darkened hands and markers, like a grey tone. Maybe that explains the textured tops of the hands and indices, normally that's something they only really do on black/dark dials. Interesting. I think it would make a great daily, as long as you're not too terrified of scratching the case.
