Rolex buying "experience" has left me kinda sour

[6172crew]

I took my brother in-law shopping for his first real watch. I wanted to make sure he got to see the most and try them all on while in Las Vegas and southern Texas.

He ended up getting a snowy valley GS. He liked the effort made to make it look different, the lume dial and the way the watch wore. GS and even the turtle Seiko have that weird bevel on the backside that allow them to sit lower than a thicker watch should. He was offer a date just that day but he didn’t feel like it was that special. The Omega GMT was another one he spent a little time looking at and I wasn’t sure if he would go that way or not but I think it was probably too traditional like the date just.

He even wore a BLRO for 10 minutes and just didn’t seem stare at it like I do when I try one on.

The Tudor is another one to look at but I don’t like the coin bezel and they are thicker than I’d like so I’m sticking with the “wait list”.
