Mini-Mini GTG - Tokyo, Japan

On a recent trip to Japan I ran into Otto, TRF's Daytona aficionado and subject matter expert. We had quick meet up at Jack Road. This watch shop is a little WIS heaven in Tokyo. More Rolexes, Panerai (and yes Dan Pierce -Tudors!) and more...Vintage, new and everywhere in between.

Otto was kind enough to give me the low down on the local watch scene and point out the many, many ADs, "Semi-ADs" etc. in the area. Let me tell you, I have never seen so many minty pre-owned Rolexes - ever. Too bad the Dollar-to-Yen ratio is what it is, or I might have picked one up for myself!

The ultimate pre-owned Daytona eluded me - but the hunt goes on. I must say I have never seen so many SS Daytonas in one shop! Thanks to Otto for his local knowledge and advice.
