It's very popular, not underrated at all
Watches
A community for watch & horology discussion.
No one underrated this model lol
Yeah, I see a pic of this watch like everyday on this sub
Underrated in the sense that OP wants you to tell him how great he is and how little praise he's gotten for wearing such a timepiece.
OP feels underrated.
It's underrated to an average watch person.
Maybe OP meant underpriced, which would make a lot of sense
It is pretty underrated in my circle and city, you get to see Rolex and Omega usually everywhere here, and most do not even know Grand Seiko.
“Most people don’t even know Grand Seiko”
Buddy, most normal people don’t even know Omega. We’re in a watches sub where everyone knows all the brands.
Buddy, that's like saying Bayern Munich is underated team because it's not that know by Americans, or that Citizen Kane is also underated because people haven't heard of it.
Came here for this
Next on r/Watches:
“Seiko 5, underrated gem I think 🤔 “
Underrated by people who aren’t into watches
Not an underrated watch but as always, looks great on the wrist and a good choice.
Never quite vibed with the crown on these GS models but cool nonetheless.
Same
The quality is quite good
They probably look amazing in person, but I always have a hard time for textured dials even though I love the idea
As good looking as the dial finishing is, I will always dislike the power reserve implementation, it just makes no sense to me the position and the arch orientation.
Yeah, I was surprised when I saw that it was flipped, lower means + lol
Why underrated?
Do you even understand what the word “underrated” means?

Love this watch but hate the bracelet. Wish they had some other options for the titanium
It is not the best, but not too bad
Nah. Not underrated at all. Don't try to sound profound. Rather, it is "correctly" rated everywhere.
When did I try to sound profound? Please tell me professor.
Look at that subtle off white coloring, the tasteful thickness of it. It even has a watermark.
Let's see Paul Allen's watch
Damn, first there was Witcher 3, now the gem in the most popular GS model.
My favorite watch, it can't be underrated!
Maybe underrated in terms of quality and total sales in comparison to equivalent watches which are highly sought after by the general public such as Rolex and Omega, but certainly not underated by r/watches standards
You don't really get to see them in the wild, ever. Even though I think they are good enough to stand with base Rolex and Omega models.
Can we delete this post with obvious Baity title.
No.
You should
It might actually be the most overrated watch in recent times lol
Have you not heard of RM or Hublot?
Do you see a lot of them in your circles?
Those brands might be squarely in underrated territory now, given how much everyone shits on them without owning or trying one on
Is “underrated” in the room with us?
I wouldn't call the Shunbun underrated. its the watch that even the most vehement grand Seiko haters admit is still fucking beautiful
I agree it’s underrated in the sense that it should stand side by side with the Rolexes at its price point.
Sure, it doesn’t have the heritage or legacy that the Swiss brands do, but any watch that innovates a movement like that.. oof
That certainly deserves more credit imo. Yet these are some of the easier high end ones to grab, if I’m not mistaken, as opposed to the exclusivity of Rolex
Yeah, the sweep seconds glide is insane on this. Spring Drive should get some more credit.
It is stunning and a gem but underrated I think now. GS is really famous and cherished and known for their excellent quality.
They have very pretty watches
Beautiful.
It's pretty rated. At least on this sub.
Is it underrated? I only ever see positive comments regarding most GS watches, but this model in particular.
Not at all underrated. Probably the most popular grand seiko in the west.
Not on here, filled with GS fanboys.
