The english speaking Seiko guy is very knowledgeable and well spoken. I could hear him for hours. I know is his job, but you can tell he is really good at it.

What's impress me the most is how Grand Seiko elevate everything, including their own quartz movement.<br>Have an hi-beat and a quartz. The value is amazing.

I had the honor of meeting Joe at a GS boutique in Beverly Hills CA last week. He was a pleasure to talk to as I showed him my Dec. 1975 Seiko 6139-6005 that I have worn for the past 48 years (he took a photo of my Seiko). He is very knowledgeable and a true gentleman.

The assembly and manufacturing of Grand Seiko watches alone is enough to put many established Swiss watch brands to shame.

Teddy, 10 years ago, did you ever see yourself owning your own watch store, or getting to tour these awesome locations? You've poured your heart into this hobby. Good for you man.

Joe is the perfect gentleman for his job. One rarely sees someone as precisely in the right spot. Great video, Teddy. More Seiko, Grand or other, please. Saving up for a GS. Gonna take a while. Family wants food and all sorts...
