For $660, the package included this watch, an ammo can converted into a watch\/strap box, a pocket knife, and a leather GSD knife holder. I am a sucker for cool gear, so all those extras were the ultimate selling point. I really needed a rugged box to keep my watches protected during outdoor adventures and photoshoots.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As Greg will tell you, the two of us have been trying to put a deal together for over a decade, but the timing was never right until now. I\u2019ve always been a huge fan of his leather straps. Now, I\u2019m stoked to finally own his work, along with the watch, the ammo can box, and the sheath. To top it all off, he even sent along his personal watch from the new 6 Series just for me to check out.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"20785\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/samsung-csc-2003\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260331_160716.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"3080,5472\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;EK-GN120A&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;SAMSUNG CSC&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1774973236&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;60&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;400&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0025&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;SAMSUNG CSC&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"SAMSUNG CSC\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;SAMSUNG CSC&lt;\/p&gt;&#10;\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260331_160716.jpg?w=576\" width=\"576\" height=\"1023\" src=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260331_160716.jpg?w=576\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20785\" srcset=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260331_160716.jpg?w=576 576w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260331_160716.jpg?w=1152 1152w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260331_160716.jpg?w=84 84w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260331_160716.jpg?w=169 169w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260331_160716.jpg?w=768 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What are my first impressions of these watches? To start, I\u2019d place them right in the same category as Scurfa, Boldr, Isotope, and Resco. They fit perfectly into that sweet spot of affordable, quintessential \u201cbeater\u201d watches. Right out of the box, the domed crystal caught my attention first and foremost. There is something truly magical about a domed crystal, and it is a design detail that will always pull at my horological heartstrings.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img

the Kobold Seal for a brief time completely started my obsession with black watch cases. I am really looking forward to seeing how this particular finish patinas and ages over time. This piece nails two of my absolute favorite design elements: drilled lugs and a beautifully domed crystal. While I understand the manufacturing trade-offs at this price point, adding screw bars instead of spring bars would have pushed the rugged tactical vibe to the next level.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bezel aesthetics are absolutely spot on. The red triangle highlighting the lume pip is a fantastic design choice that ties the entire dial configuration together. Functionally, the bezel action is incredibly smooth and lines up perfectly with each marker. Given the affordable price point, its performance completely punches above its weight class\u2014running circles around its price bracket and matching watches I\u2019ve owned at much higher tiers.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"20789\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/samsung-csc-2007\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_092126.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"3080,5472\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;EK-GN120A&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;SAMSUNG CSC&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1775985685&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;60&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.005&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;SAMSUNG CSC&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"SAMSUNG CSC\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;SAMSUNG CSC&lt;\/p&gt;&#10;\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_092126.jpg?w=576\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"576\" height=\"1023\" src=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_092126.jpg?w=576\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20789\" srcset=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_092126.jpg?w=576 576w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_092126.jpg?w=1152 1152w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_092126.jpg?w=84 84w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_092126.jpg?w=169 169w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_092126.jpg?w=768 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The crown position on this watch is excellent, though the crown itself runs smaller than what I am typically used to. I wish it had a larger profile to make gripping it easier; operating this crown with gloves on would be next to impossible. Pulling it out to engage the time-setting position is also a bit of a struggle, and I am not entirely sure if the issue lies with the crown size or the stem tension.

I notice a lot of collectors complain about $600 watches as if they should be on par with high-end retail brands. You simply can\u2019t go into a purchase with unrealistic expectations. That being said, this watch absolutely holds its own against established microbrands like Resco, Aegir, Boldr, Gruppo Gamma, Zelos, Raven, and Nodus.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"20792\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/samsung-csc-2010\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111058.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"3080,5472\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;EK-GN120A&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;SAMSUNG CSC&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1775992258&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;60&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.002&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;SAMSUNG CSC&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"SAMSUNG CSC\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;SAMSUNG CSC&lt;\/p&gt;&#10;\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111058.jpg?w=576\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"576\" height=\"1023\" src=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111058.jpg?w=576\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20792\" srcset=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111058.jpg?w=576 576w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111058.jpg?w=1152 1152w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111058.jpg?w=84 84w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111058.jpg?w=169 169w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111058.jpg?w=768 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">April 16th, 2026<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"20793\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/samsung-csc-2011\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111110.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"3080,5472\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;EK-GN120A&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;SAMSUNG CSC&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1775992270&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;60&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.002&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;SAMSUNG CSC&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"SAMSUNG CSC\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;SAMSUNG CSC&lt;\/p&gt;&#10;\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111110.jpg?w=576\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"576\" height=\"1023\" src=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111110.jpg?w=576\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20793\" srcset=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111110.jpg?w=576 576w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111110.jpg?w=1152 1152w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111110.jpg?w=84 84w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111110.jpg?w=169 169w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111110.jpg?w=768 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Happy Thursday, aka mini-Friday! I am thoroughly enjoying this GSD-5 from @gregstevensdesign. This matte black dial with the classic 3-6-9-12 numerals is just so damn good, both from a legibility standpoint and pure aesthetics. There is something incredibly pure and beautiful about this classic layout.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What I really appreciate about Greg\u2019s design choices here is how he kept the dial classic yet bare-bones. His execution of the text is brilliant; it adds subtle depth while maintaining an ultra-clean look. If it had been standard printed white text, it completely would have changed the dynamic of the dial. Of course, I\u2019m a massive fan of the no-date execution as well. Date windows aren\u2019t a dealbreaker for me, but no-date dials are always a major bonus.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"20794\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/samsung-csc-2012\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_105540.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"3080,5472\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;EK-GN120A&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;SAMSUNG CSC&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1775991340&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;60&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.002&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;SAMSUNG CSC&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"SAMSUNG CSC\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;SAMSUNG CSC&lt;\/p&gt;&#10;\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_105540.jpg?w=576\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"576\" height=\"1023\" src=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_105540.jpg?w=576\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20794\" srcset=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_105540.jpg?w=576 576w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_105540.jpg?w=1152 1152w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_105540.jpg?w=84 84w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_105540.jpg?w=169 169w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_105540.jpg?w=768 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The hands on this watch are a perfect match. They are proportioned to the dial with absolute precision, both in terms of length and width. Thanks to the excellent lume treatment on both the hands and the numerals, that stellar legibility extends effortlessly into low-light and dark environments.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Factoring in how I purchased this piece\u2014bundled with the converted ammo can box, the pocket knife, the leather sheath, and strap-changing tools\u2014this is easily one of the best $600 values I\u2019ve come across in a very long time.

I already knew that Greg makes a fantastic strap and has a well-deserved cult following, but watchmaking is an entirely different beast. What surprises me most about the GSD 5 and 6 Series is how the watches feel like a direct extension of his straps. Normally, it\u2019s the other way around\u2014a strap adds character and extends the personality of a watch. Greg flips the script here. His watches completely capture the character, charm, and overall badassery of his straps. Having owned and reviewed watches from other strapmakers turned watch brands, I\u2019ve seen many fail to translate that leatherwork magic into a timepiece.

I am definitely guilty of it myself, and I see it from others on a daily basis. As we delve deeper into our own watch journeys, we become jaded. We start demanding that every single timepiece be our definition of \u201cperfect.\u201d It\u2019s not only unrealistic, but it is also completely unfair to watch brands. If I had stumbled upon a watch like this 30 years ago, I would have considered it absolutely flawless and the most badass watch I had ever experienced.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"20844\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/samsung-csc-2054\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260517_121045.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"3080,5472\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;EK-GN120A&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;SAMSUNG CSC&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1779019845&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;60&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.4&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;SAMSUNG CSC&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"SAMSUNG CSC\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;SAMSUNG CSC&lt;\/p&gt;&#10;\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260517_121045.jpg?w=576\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"576\" height=\"1023\" src=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260517_121045.jpg?w=576\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20844\" srcset=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260517_121045.jpg?w=576 576w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260517_121045.jpg?w=1152 1152w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260517_121045.jpg?w=84 84w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260517_121045.jpg?w=169 169w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260517_121045.jpg?w=768 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To some people this may be the case today with this watch. Now I am not excusing watches that have shitty quality\/quality control, I am simply saying that each watch comes from a different place. I would never compare my SeL Omnidiver to one of Greg\u2019s watches. Does that mean Greg\u2019s watches are inferior or should receive less recognition?!? Absolutely not. This watch is simply from a different place and intended for different use. I would grab this watch and hike with it, swim in the river with it, change the oil in my Jeep with it. I wouldn\u2019t grab this watch for a situation where hard impacts were present.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"20799\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/samsung-csc-2017\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111209.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"3080,5472\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;EK-GN120A&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;SAMSUNG CSC&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1775992328&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;60&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.002&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;SAMSUNG CSC&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"SAMSUNG CSC\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;SAMSUNG CSC&lt;\/p&gt;&#10;\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111209.jpg?w=576\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"576\" height=\"1023\" src=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111209.jpg?w=576\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20799\" srcset=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111209.jpg?w=576 576w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111209.jpg?w=1152 1152w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111209.jpg?w=84 84w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111209.jpg?w=169 169w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260412_111209.jpg?w=768 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The moral of the story is that we need to understand where a watch is from so that we can appreciate it for what it is, not compare it for what it\u2019s not.

Having been in this hobby for nearly three decades, I admit I can be jaded about certain things. However, this comes from a place of pure objectivity. When you\u2019ve been involved with a hobby for this long, genuine surprises become increasingly rare\u2014it is simply the nature of the beast. The flip side is that when something\u00a0<em class=\"eujQNb\">does<\/em>\u00a0manage to surprise you, it feels that much more special and authentic.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This watch completely caught me off guard because of its details, quality, price point, and the sheer volume of gear included in the package. I am extremely satisfied with this offering from Greg. I highly urge others to ask him about the ammo can and knife bundle. For $660 USD, you get a quality watch, a custom strap, a converted ammo can watch box, a pocket knife, a leather sheath, and strap tools. Try finding a better value out there right now\u2014especially in today\u2019s economy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83e\udee0\ud83e\udee0\ud83e\udee0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"20831\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/samsung-csc-2045\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260509_073407.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"3080,5472\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;EK-GN120A&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;SAMSUNG CSC&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1778312046&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;60&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.008&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;SAMSUNG CSC&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"SAMSUNG CSC\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;SAMSUNG CSC&lt;\/p&gt;&#10;\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260509_073407.jpg?w=576\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"576\" height=\"1023\" src=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260509_073407.jpg?w=576\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20831\" srcset=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260509_073407.jpg?w=576 576w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260509_073407.jpg?w=1152 1152w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260509_073407.jpg?w=84 84w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260509_073407.jpg?w=169 169w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260509_073407.jpg?w=768 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After seeing Greg\u2019s straps since his start, I finally can say that I have experienced his work. He is a talented artist with strap making. His watches are good quality. And he is an absolute professional when dealing with. He is definitely an asset to the industry and community! If you have been contemplating trying one of his straps or watches, they are definitely worth it. Definitely one of the best values I have purchased in a long time. I highly recommend Greg\u2019s products. His watches are on par with brands like Resco, Nodus, Boldr, Raven\u2026..to give you an idea of where GSD falls into.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"20832\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/samsung-csc-2046\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260509_073247.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"3080,5472\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;EK-GN120A&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;SAMSUNG CSC&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1778311967&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;60&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.008&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;SAMSUNG CSC&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"SAMSUNG CSC\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;SAMSUNG CSC&lt;\/p&gt;&#10;\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260509_073247.jpg?w=576\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"576\" height=\"1023\" src=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260509_073247.jpg?w=576\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20832\" srcset=\"https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260509_073247.jpg?w=576 576w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260509_073247.jpg?w=1152 1152w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260509_073247.jpg?w=84 84w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260509_073247.jpg?w=169 169w, https:\/\/timetoblogwatches.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260509_073247.jpg?w=768 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thanks Greg and thanks to you all for reading!<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>April 2nd, 2026 Last Friday, I saw an Instagram post from Greg Stevens Design that I just couldn\u2019t resist.
