My brother has been living in Japan the last 6 years. Apparently he's going to propose to a woman out there he met. Makes fukall for money but he's happy. He consulted me on a respectable watch for him to wear. I pointed him to a Seiko Presage.
Think as a wedding gift, I'm going to get him a Grand Seiko GMT. Seems very fitting as he'll likely be spending the rest of his life there, and frankly it's my favorite Grand Seiko.

He could get good allocation on a Rolex from an AD if he pairs it with the engagement ring.

Why not have both? Because having multiple Datejusts is fuking retarded, that's why. Not sure what i'm gonna do, but definitely have way more capital tied up in datejusts than i've ever wanted lmao.
YES, aware hand/wrist combo looks hella bloated.

EDIT: Here's that combination (new dial/fluted bezel/jubilee bracelet. I personally think it looks pretty good. That pattern is not as loud as the safari/leaves or whatever the heck the other new dial pattern is.

That "jubilee dial" is the watch equivalent of putting pineapple on pizza. It takes something that's timeless and perfect then fuks it up.

I was watching some youtube's on this piece yesterday and I gotta say, I would struggle giving it to my bro if I bought it. The vids make it look even sexier. The one and only knock on the watch is that its water resistance is basically "well you can stand in rain with it… probably" lol. That said, my favorite grand seiko vs my favorite patek…

I would double down on that, but the only other rolex I'll purchase is the 126715CHNR. Not there yet, and probably will be able to get one whenever i go into my AD and say i'm serious about wanting to buy.

Who'd have ever thought doing business with a felon like Anthony who just looks like a scammer would be a bad idea?
Figured this would happen eventually. Doubt it's just a publicity stunt.

Just imagine how stupid you have to be to pretend like you closed up shop without a word while still owing customers and other dealers money and watches. They also got a bunch of "donations" for them to open up their new store in return for wholesale pricing. This is a industry based off trust and once you lose that even a publicity stunt won't be able to make up for that.
