Grand Seiko fake watches
Posté: 06 Nov 2025, 05:41Grand Seiko's legendary entry-level automatic GMT watch welcomes a new companion.
These two new GMT best replica watches are priced in line with the entry-level price of this iconic travel timepiece.
Like its older brother Seiko, Grand Seiko boasts a vast product line. Therefore, new models from the brand sometimes appear monotonous, lost among a sea of seemingly similar timepieces.
However, occasionally a Grand Seiko watch stands out as a classic. The most famous of these is the SBGA211, also known as the "Snowflake Watch." This titanium watch features a winter-themed dial and is powered by the Spring Drive movement, making it one of the best everyday watches ever made.
While lacking a catchy nickname, its popularity closely follows the Snowflake Watch with the SBGM221 (originally launched as the SBGM021 when GS was still a sub-brand of Seiko). This is a beloved automatic GMT swiss watches replica, praised for its moderate size, fine craftsmanship, beautiful and serene dial, and relatively low price for a Grand Seiko.
Now, the SBGM221 welcomes two new friends: two brand-new automatic GMT watches. They share the same movement, the same case, the same dial layout, and perhaps most importantly, the same entry-level price.
Similar, Yet Different
These new GMT watches (models SBGM255 "Snowflake" and SBGM257 "Moondrop") share many features with the SBGM221, which is a good thing.
First, the elegant 39.5mm stainless steel case is retained, with its rounded corners, surprisingly sharp lines, and extensive use of Grand Seiko's signature Zaratsu polishing technique, all of which are impressive. The large box-shaped sapphire crystal remains prominently set on the dial, and the six-screw-secured transparent case back is also retained. replica watches sale
The movement behind the sapphire crystal remains unchanged: the 9S66 caliber, a pilot's GMT automatic movement with a three-day power reserve and an official accuracy of -3 to +5 seconds per day, slightly better than the COSC chronometer standard of -4 to +6 seconds per day.
The dial layout unsurprisingly remains the same. The multi-bar hour markers are still present, with double bars at 12, 6, and 9 o'clock. Most of the hour markers at 3 o'clock have been replaced by a bordered date window. The printed minute markers still surround the dial edge, while the printed 24-hour ring reappears on the inner dial, encircling the applied GS logo at 12 o'clock and the "Automatic/GMT" lettering at 6 o'clock. The hands remain the sharp dauphine hour and minute hands, along with the signature short-arrow GMT hand. Grand Seiko Elegance replica watches
Both the SBGM255 and SBGM257 feature alligator leather straps and steel folding clasps, just like the SBGM221, but they replace the SBGM221's brown strap with a black Snowdrop strap and the Moondrop's brown strap with a navy blue strap.
The only difference between these new GMT watches and the SBGM221 lies in the color and dial finish—the latter making a significant difference.
Like many Seiko Grand Seiko watches, these two new SBGM timepieces draw inspiration from nature and the changing seasons. The SBGM257 "Moonlight Dewdrop" is inspired by dewdrops glistening under the autumn moonlight. It features a deep blue dial with gold GMT hands, echoing the gold printing of the dial text and 24-hour markers. Jacob and Co. astronomia sky watch price
The SBGM255 "Snowflake" is inspired by melting snow under the early spring sun. In keeping with this, the dial features a snow-white color scheme, while the GMT hands utilize the same blue heat treatment process as the ivory-dialed SBGM221. However, unlike the SBGM221, the 24-hour markers on this watch also use a matching blue instead of black, creating a more harmonious and unified overall design.
The biggest change in the new GMT watches is that the SBGM255 and SBGM257 both feature a new textured dial, while the SBGM221 uses a flat dial. Both watches are adorned with a guilloché geometric spiral pattern, which GS states reflects light in a unique way, echoing the watch's design inspiration—dewdrops and melting snow.
The SBGM221 will always be a classic, but I might prefer the Moondrop and Snowdrop. Their textured dials add visual interest and harmonize better with the other richly textured, nature-inspired dials in the Grand Seiko collection. Moreover, both new watches have fitting nicknames! corum golden bridge replica
