No SS Sports Watches in Haneda

I visited the Rolex store at the Haneda Airport. No SS Sports watches.

Airports are worse than anywhere though due to duty free reasons.

I think I saw every single model and every grey dealer in Japan in every city I visited.

Also, Japan has a lot more grey dealers, with every electronics store having a Rolex section.

They'll damn near pay you to take an Omega at the boutique in Haneda.

Haneda is a nice airport though. I preferred it to Narita when I was living in Japan. Fewer flights, though. But it’s a long ride in from Narita to Tokyo, depending on where in Tokyo.
