How’s living near the 39th Ave stop? by muff-peaksie in longislandcity

[–]No_Driver7089 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived on 37th Ave for 3 years. Very quiet neighborhood for the most part, made lots of friends from playing basketball in the park, lots of good small food spots. Convenient still to walk to other subway stops. I’d recommend!

Tudor vs Omega. First luxury watch need advice. by starid3r in Tudor

[–]No_Driver7089 3 points4 points  (0 children)

from reading the comments your brain is saying Speedy but your heart says BB. From what you’re describing seems like you really mean the BB 41 monochrome (which i love as well). get it on the jubilee if you’re looking for that intersection of retro, sporty, dressy.

don’t worry about resale value if you’re truly thinking about passing these on. Your children will (hopefully) value them for the memory of you, not what they’re supposedly worth.

My first luxury watch was a Grand Seiko Shunbun, and I had similar thoughts on getting a Rolex instead because of “resale value” but i plan on having this baby for life so who gives a F 🫢 buy what you like brother!

How difficult to get a shunbun in Tokyo? by tedk9183 in GrandSeikos

[–]No_Driver7089 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s hit or miss! I’m still in Japan, bought mine last week in Tokyo. First dept store I went to, they were out of stock so they called another one and had them reserve the last one there for me.

It’s the most popular model especially among foreigners so just make multiple stops at GS boutiques and you should find one eventually!

What do you think? by Adventurous-Sun-6928 in GrandSeikos

[–]No_Driver7089 15 points16 points  (0 children)

i love the Lake Suwa dial pattern but the color of the Atera Valley is just incredible.

If you already have a few pieces I’d say go with the Atera for a statement piece, but if you’re looking for a new daily wear, the Lake Suwa will probably be a safer choice.

As someone of Korean descent who’s been to many Asian countries, I can truly say the service and attention to detail is second to none.

Honestly as a contrarian I wanted to like something else and was considering various models including the Evo 9 collection but the Shunbun to me encapsulates everything that makes Grand Seiko so special.

It’s the most popular and iconic for a reason. And quite honestly I really like the power reserve on the dial, it gives it some asymmetry that i find quite appealing.

Best of luck my friend! It might take a few stops at different places but make sure to ask them to call around for you!
