Surprise surprise... unless I'm missing something, Drop has totally screwed up the pricing for the SNZG13J1.
  • +$20 in the gray box at the top
  • +$10 in the photo list down below (somewhat enticing at the $109 price point)
  • +$30 when you go to buy
Why do I keep wasting my time on this once-great site?

I suspect all that had something to do with the short duration of the drop. They're not the best with details/numbers/specs/pricing/web-design. But other than that stuff, they're great!

The Js do usually go for more than the Malaysia watches. Not that it explains your issue, just pointing it out.

LeftybfhrggOne would truly be pissing in the wind to spend extra cash for a J-model at this price range.

RayFHow much do you get them for? I thought $130 was not a bad price for a J.

LeftybfhrggI don’t buy Js unless I have to (or unless I have a good reason). I don’t believe there’s any appreciable difference between them and others (Malaysian), especially on the low-end. I would obviously be willing to pay more for a JDM only watch, as there aren’t other alternatives. $130 isn’t a bad price here, but $99 would get me off the couch faster.

RayFI'd buy a J just so I can have evenly spread wording at the bottom of the dial.

RayFI've bought a few watches from him. Picking up a pretty blue Citizen automatic dress watch tomorrow. It was sent to my billing address, 45 minutes away. I tried my best to leave a not nasty post on his video, but the chapter ring on the first watch was HIDEOUS! And I can't agree on his assessment of value, though he's a businessman and I don't expect him to torpedo his own products. Nearly, and over, $300 for an updated movement with Hardlex, hollow, folded links and a crummy clasp? With tilted chapter rings and only decent looks? No thanks...

RayFOh, and I was dangerously close to buying that SNZG13J1 today. I'm glad I didn't. Look what a friend sent me today....

It is a quartz, but I'm kind of happy about that. This will give me 2 quartz in my collection and that's what I wanted. I love the all silver hands and numerals. It has lume on the hands and indices, haven't seen it well yet. It shimmers under the double done sapphire crystal and is the perfect size, at 42mm with a fairly compact lug to lug. I have great friends. Alas, no J for me...

RayFWhat did you do, Ray? Is Drop out to get you? I'm pretty sure I endorsed your post with a big thumbs up last night. I just saw 0 endorsements. When I clicked to endorse again, it took away my previous one and gave you a -1 endorsement count. So I clicked it again to get you back to 0. What did you do?

tbjs I've experienced that same phenomena myself! I used to think it was me, but lately I'm just chalking it up to MD's held together with spit & chewing gum website ;- )

LeftybfhrggI have to be honest, while I love my new Hamilton, I love the big day model you've got a little better. But I am very happy and haven't worn anything else in 3 days...

LeftybfhrggI assume that has the double domed crystal? Pictures can't do it (and the dial) justice...

tbjsI believe so but I can’t swear to it. It is domed slightly and there is no distortion so I assume it’s domed on the inside as well but the dome is so slight I may not see distortion. It is the “Interstellar” watch. AKA: Khaki Aviation Pilot Day Date Auto... lot easier just to say Interstellar🙂
