A little of your opinions needed. Thank you

Thank you all once again for the kind advice and opinions...


Today was the last day that I was wearing this


And I went to buy this



After purchasing the GS...I put both watches side by side...sorry forgot to take side by side pics. But there was no doubt in my mind that the GS is the more attractive piece...to me at least...no disrespect to the IWC lovers out there as I have had an IWC in my possession for over 10 years starting with the 3706.           

So therefore, I decided to say goodbye to the IWC 3717...and a big HELLO to my GS SBGR 083


Can't be a happier man

The IWC does look a bit clumsy for the size, further fattened by the wide bracelet. I have a similar watch with 42mm case and 22mm bracelet with minimum taper, I did not enjoy wearing it, and it doesn't match my medium to small wrist size, but after I replace the bracelet to a leather strap which taper from 22mm to 18mm, it wears like a total different watch! And it's back to my wrist now! ;-)

Anyhow, Chinese has a saying, old ones don't go new ones won't come! In the occasion with CNY around the corner, I think the timing is just right, comgrats on the simple yet elegant watch! Wear it in good health!

Thanks again for the love guys...I am always looking at the Seiko, and is just blown away by the simplicity and elegance of the watch. As for the IWC, I did have a leather bracelet for it and switch it around sometimes. I still find it a little "big" for my taste...maybe I'm growing old...or maybe the Seiko is not as "flashy" as the IWC, as I want an understated watch...simple, classic, elegant...

PM sent...

And thanks again guys...really love this watch...here is a shot of the display back, but only shot with my phone. Sorry can't get proper macro shots as it is quite tricky with a very inquisitive 2 year old son running around kacau-ing me...



And a front shot...

Man, did you ever make the right choice!

That is just an absoluite cracker of a watch.  If you ever decide to sell...
