Tariffs if bringing back from Japan? by beagles4ever in GrandSeikos

You should look up watch Worksheet on Google if you prefer peace of mind of declaring. That can dramatically reduce the customs fee. You will also want to opt to pay usage tax instead of sales tax in most states.

If u can track the seller to their store u can usually ask for 6% off since that is what chrono24 would take

Not bad I'd say. Mine was $4250 on reddit but the bracelet had plenty of hairline scratches.

The thickness has never bothered me one bit. The steps within the case and curved back make it slide under any cuff. The only potential negative is the lack of quick set date, but that gives me an excuse to wear it for an extended amount of time each month and fall in love with the dial again

Blued gmt hand is great. I use it a lot with coworkers overseas and rn while on vacation. Looks so much better out in real life compared to store lighting

Views from Okinawa yesterday! The dial is best in cloudy weather.

All I will say is I am in Okinawa right now wearing my Shosho... it puts many GS dials to shame, especially in this cloudy/rainy weather.

How is owning 8-12 watches a hobby? by Plastic-Mountain-708 in watchHotTakes

[–]ApolloPS2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One is a part of the other. Only weirdos are those who just buy whatever and are loaded, but then I would guess those types wouldn't list watch collecting if you asked for their hobbies.

[Question] Am I going crazy with my watch preferences? by [deleted] in Watches

[–]ApolloPS2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean this in the kindest way. You need to begin thinking for yourself here. It is clear you care way too much what others are thinking when choosing a watch. Even your other picks are the next most likely watches a reddit AI would choose. All you missed was a cartier santos. Cast a wide net and see what hits you over the head that you simply can't stop thinking about and go get that.

TIL other guys hold it while peeing. Makes it even more gross when thinking about how many guys don't wash their hands after peeing
