For sale is the star of my vintage watch collection -- the legendary Grand Seiko 61GS 6145-8000. This is the **RARE early dial variant** (Double-Signed Seiko AND Grand Seiko). I can't remember the last time I saw one of these available for sale, in this condition, on WatchExchange. In addition to this rare dial variation, a couple aspects of this watch make it stand out from the typical 61GS for sale on Reddit: * This watch went through the full Lapinist Treatment in 2022 -- Case was refinished with original bevels and polish, crystal was replaced, and movement was serviced * Hi-Beat Movement and quick-set date work and keep time well (+/- 8 s/day) * Watch hands and markers are in great shape, with a few marks for their age * Medallion is in AMAZING shape * Watch comes with RARE original Grand Seiko-signed buckle on a custom Artisan Straps navy grain leather **A few notes on condition:** The watch was worn after I got it back from the Lapinist, so it does have some scratches on the polished surfaces and a few superficial scratches on the plastic crystal. A few sharp edges may have a few indentations from normal wear and tear. I make no guarantees on the watch performance once it leaves my hands, but it's always been very accurate in the times that I've worn it. Given the quality of the watch and the work done on it (Lapinist refinishing, service, new crystal, custom leather strap, original Grand Seiko buckle) -- I am asking for **$$1400 Shipped CONUS**. **Will consider reasonable offers, but no trades.** I am based in Houston, so can do F2F sales as well. For Rest of the World, I will consider on a case-by-case basis, but the watch will be declared for its full value and insurance -- and will come with an extra charge of $50-100, based on your location. **Time Stamp**: [https://imgur.com/a/PsYyR9n](https://imgur.com/a/PsYyR9n) **Video of Watch Running:** [https://imgur.com/1VoRHgd](https://imgur.com/1VoRHgd)
