Grand Seiko SBGE253 Review
A watch is a personal, versatile timepiece carried or worn by a person. Everyone has their own taste in watches including their preferred brand, design, and style. If you are looking for an exceptional quality watch with an elegant and stylish look then the Grand Seiko SBGE253 is perfect for you. It has an amazing design and many notable features. This robust watch is a smaller Grand Seiko model with hybrid movement and comes in black, blue, and green. Grand Seiko has split up its timepieces into three collections: Heritage, Sport, and Elegance. This particular model is a GMT watch and is a popular traveler’s watch.
Previous models, such as the SBGE201 and SBGJ237 (automatic programmed), are extraordinary watches. Their sapphire bezel gives them an elegant quality which adds to the unique look. The Grand Seiko SBGE253, however, takes the personality of this timepiece up a notch. Not only is the look exciting and luxurious, but the watch also offers a feeling of quality that is fortified with a non-pivoting bezel made of cleaned ceramic with a white carved 24-hour display scale. The back has a strong steel case and is water resistant up to 200 meters.
When we talk about the look of watches we are most often referring to the dial. The blue, green, and black Grand Seiko SBGE253 all have a pleasant sunray-brushed adornment and extraordinary variation between the background’s sparkly applied indexes and hands. All the components of the dial are executed with attention, with sharp faces and cleaned or ceramic brushed surfaces. The dial is outlined by a two tone internal spine with an additional 24-hour scale. All the components include Lumibrite for extremely effective dark-time readability.
The showcase of the Grand Seiko SBGE253 is exemplary within the GMT sport watches, with focal H-M-S and 24-hour display to show an extra local region time zone when home or when travelling. The date is connected to the nearby hour hand and can be moved forward and backward. The GMT hand is free and settings are done according to the traveler’s preference; when you pull the crown to the primary position, you will have the option to change the region time hand autonomously in one-hour increases without changing the time keeping. The Grand Seiko SBGE253 comes with a tri-interface tempered steel arm band that is pleasantly tightened and uniquely designed with a mix of brushed and cleaned components that smooth out the general look. Connected to the arm band is a three-overlap, press button deployant clasp.
