A GP Masonic watch dial. Very interesting.
Is the history of the watch personal to you or one that you have been lucky enough to find?

My Christmas present from my wife, which arrived while I was down under. Many good things come in threes, and she very cleverly conflated my love of GPs, desire for a 'vintage' and a family history which includes Freemasonry.
I love it (see parallel thread on 'vintages'

Strange, I absolutely love Grand Seikos but couldn't bring myself to buy one against a big name brand. Sadly, that does not reflect well on me, (and I claim to like low-profile) but there it is.
It remains a superb watch, and probably better than any I own!
