Description: Today we return to bargain watch hunting with the discovery of a long lost gem completely made in Japan, for what might be the best Rolex Day-Date, Datejust, and Tudor Prince Date-Day alternative under $500. In this video I strike gold with an impressive automatic Japanese watch that not only presents good value on the vintage market, but boasts horological connections to Hamilton and Laco, and a seemingly forgotten story on an early innovator—and at one time, the second largest watchmaker after Seiko in the 1970s. Join me for an unboxing of a horological gem, with an up-close look at the origins of Ricoh and their Dynamic Wide 36mm Automatic aka the Japanese President watch.
