What kills me about GS is their recommended service intervals and the cost depending on if you want the watch refinished or not and then it requires being sent off to Japan.

Where is the cheapest place to purchase them?

On Jomashop I was only able to locate the first watch linked above with the Mother of Pearl watch face and diamond bezel. I couldnt find the second watch with a blue face and diamond bezel

Nice. Are there any differences with a JDM model compared to one you can buy domestically?

This specific colour for the solar and bluetooth model GA-B2100-1A1(JF) wasn't released in N America, through official channels. You could probably still buy it through other channels online/imported here. Plus the Yen was/is weak so I got a great deal!
