Re: GRANDE SIEKO

I would recommend a good Swiss watch over a Japanese watch anyday. The Swiss
are known for their excellent mechanical watches. The Japanese are known for
Seiko and Casio electronic watches.

Hi,all
How good is a Grand Sieko

Dunno, never seen one, they're not imported to the US. The only one I
found available for sale is on Ebay. I suppose they're very good, they
look nicely finished. $3500+ seems like a lot of money for a plain
looking stainless steel, white dial, manual wind, time only watch. For
that kind of money you could find a nice vintage 18k Vacheron.
