Ref. 45GSC 021 Dark Blue Dial
Original price 32,000 Yen
From The Grand Seiko Guy https://thegrandseikoguy.substack.com/ ...
"Not only was the case design of these references, with its dramatically faceted profile, a big step forward, but it was also the first time that a vintage Grand Seiko featured a dark coloured dial."
"These days it is interesting to note that it is exceedingly rare to come across a blue dialed vintage Grand Seiko that retains its original colour. In almost all instances, the blue pigment has faded away leaving the dials looking almost black."
