That SAS is a beautiful piece isn't it? I got this one from Duff in a multi watch trade. I gave him 4 watches and I got the SAS and don't regret it at all!!
Nice pics. I actually pulled the trigger on the SAS in silvertone/black dial but after seeing several posts in various spots about minor flaws I decided to go with a SAN III instead but the pics of the SAS that I have seen are nice. I would prefer a mid-size on it though. I generally like my watches 50 and under except for my RD which I like a lot.
Obviously I love the SAS, but that gold/ black combo on the III is awesome Brian! That is definitely one of their better variations. I had the 5040 with the gold dial. That one was hot, but the black dial against the gold inserts and rubber strap is sick! Smart pick sir.
I know I've written this before, but I really like that watch!

This is the 4s12 movement
Seiko SBSS003 Sports 5 Rally Reissue. The real one, not the replica non working bezel one...

January 1962. Called the first Grand Seiko, but the first ones had Grand Seiko engraved. Due to ruining too many dials doing that, they switched to the gold embossing. Mine isn’t engraved.
A bidynator, I love the attention to detail of the old watches. This watch got me hooked...
