    Why you never film shopping parts? Would be cool to watch this concept too, same as traveling blog to Japan! And the most important, where are your cute dogos? 😂

    Personally love the Cartier more, however thats my taste. I do love the Rolex but I lean more towards a Chopard on leather strap

    Hey Rui, love and have both watches too. Mine is the 31 Datejust rose gold dial and fluted bezel , with 2 tone steel and rose gold oyster bracelet (it’s sporty enough to wear for golf) and the Panthere small in steel.

    As a person deeply submerged in the watch community: A bicolor 31mm dj with a diamond face is easy to get and even can be bought under retail again. The ad might still tell you they have a waitlist but will most likely call you instantly as soon as they have your watch back in stock. It‘s just part pf their sales strategy. Just trying to shine some light on the whole waitlist marketing. Congrats on the beautiful piece though

      I’m well aware of the reputation of two tone watches and datejusts as well but this is just the way it is in Germany and Japan, as I have first hand experience for both countries. I clarified in the video that this applies only to me and obviously the more popular “male” models work differently. 🤷🏻‍♀️

      @JacobSmith-hz2tr can you not read? I personally find her piece a lot nicee than any sub or gmt. I was just informing people about Rolex horriblensales strategy. But of course some simp comes out and plays white knight for no reason.

    Both watches are stunning. Please give us a long term review for both. Now that you had the rolex for a few months, how often did you wear it? do you feel safe with it on the streets? do people notice that it is a rolex? when and why do you decide to wear the panthere over the rolex?

    • @rui_etc
      @rui_etc  5 месяцев назад +1

      Thank you! I wear my Rolex almost every day, as I live in Germany / frequent Japan I haven’t felt unsafe with the watch yet. I do go to London occasionally but I was in long sleeves during all the trips so I haven’t felt targeted at all. I would probably avoid wearing it in summers in London though.
      I wear the panthere over Rolex when I am wearing more jewelry because I feel that it’s more subtle 🙂

    Im surprised that these two tone datejusts are waitlisted items in Japan and Germany. Congrats on your beautiful watch and more so on skipping the dreaded waitlist. Here in the states, not only is it very easy to get two tone datejusts 36mm and under, but it's also the case for stainless steel. Here you can pretty much walk in and get any ladies models you want with no wait, however, any stainless steel sports models here are impossible to get. I wonder if the opposite is true in Germany and Japan. Its interesting seeing the the current state of inventory and allocations across different regions. Thanks for sharing your experience and congrats on your piece!

      It’s really crazy, I would obviously expect people to wait for GMTs, YM, Daytonas and Submariners but the waiting lists for smaller models especially in TT or PM makes no sense 🥲 my friend in Tokyo has tried to get a lady DJ for 4 months (by going into the shop almost every day) and in the end got a Ballon Bleu from Cartier because it was a pain
