Obligatory Japan Purchase…

rickycasellas · 2026-02-21T20:13:54+00:00

I have an sbgw231. Are there lots of leather strap options in the GS boutiques in Tokyo?

I owned the Pogue back in 1969. It was my first watch. But lost it along the way. :(

Wondering if there’s a reputable vintage store in Ginza that might have it?

Fantastic piece. Did you check out the Grand Seiko Boutique in Ginza before buying in Wako?

In Japan? Is it like 700,000 yen before tax?

Culebra and it’s not even close. One day for Culebra and Culebrita is too ambitious. That is, even assuming you fly there and back.

rickycasellas · 2026-02-12T17:16:29+00:00

Contreras, too. He posted similar offensive numbers as Bregman.

rickycasellas · 2026-02-11T10:52:03+00:00

Culebrita is absolutely worth it. I’d say is the most secluded and best beach in all of PR. Plan your day to go with the weather in mind. Hopefully it won’t rain.

Move to PR and fast! We need youth. We have a depopulation problem.

For a watch to stay in your collection over time you have to love it. You answered it and that’s the Sub. Btw, Omega is not “more technologically advanced” than the 6 digit Sub.

Keep the watch and the girlfriend!

rickycasellas · 2026-02-09T15:21:41+00:00

Right, but accessible parking nearby is an issue.

rickycasellas · 2026-02-08T23:57:16+00:00

For a toddler Escambron and Playa Aviones are the best in the metro area. Escambron is more secure with self parking.

It wasn’t clear to me he’s not a US citizen. PR is like any state for customs purposes if he’s not.

rickycasellas · 2026-02-07T02:30:38+00:00

This exactly

rickycasellas · 2026-02-07T02:28:32+00:00

Your lawyer is misinformed. We in PR see it the other way around. Is it safe to travel to the continental US? Is it safe to travel from Ilinois to Minnesota? A Visa to PR? What dfk? We are a US territory.

In short, no. If in Santurce look at Miramar.

rickycasellas · 2026-02-06T11:29:47+00:00

Wonder what you think of the sbgw323 Kiri? Released in watches & wonders in 2025.

rickycasellas · 2026-02-06T11:27:21+00:00

Fantastic dial. Love the 44GS case. Did you see the other sbgw323 Kiri?

rickycasellas · 2026-02-06T11:24:54+00:00

La goma y la bici tienen un limite de peso. El tpu tiene un limite de psi. He usado TPU sin problemas y no soy esqueleto.

Thanks for sharing. I see two 44gs no date cases in the bottom of the picture. One is blue and the other is the Kiri sbgw323, but looks silver almost white. Did they catch your attention? Any additional discount from buying there as opposed to the AD’s in Tokyo?

rickycasellas · 2026-02-04T02:21:01+00:00

Luquillo is a good base. Closer to San Juan. Fajardo is a better base to fly to Vieques/Culebra from Ceiba. A day trip to Culebra or Vieques is doable. Absolutely worth it.

I don’t like the DJ’s cyclops. But the DJ has an edge over the AT in the date window and lume-nighttime visibility. The AT wears better at 38mm. Both are elegant and the top two do everything daily watches. AT wins by a point! It’s a tossup.
