Top suits you better imo, look at your sleeves
Definitely agree the top one is a better fit. You want to think about things like driving your car and having the sleeves move halfway up your arm because you’re reaching forward. If you’re just standing there you could probably get away with the other one. But my guess is you’d be a tad more active than that.

Looks kinda shoddy to be honest. I feel like the 60's and 70's was full of half assed leather jackets. I used to come up with stuff like that from the thrift store quite often actually. Me? I'd pass especially if you are in the US and have access to an ebay account, you could easily get something like that for 50-100 bucks instead of 300 bucks.

Vintage in Japan is really rad, but I find the prices way way way too inflated for like 80 percent of items. Especially considering that a lot of people just have pickers go into those giant rag warehouses and find stuff for ultra cheap. It's cool when you see something that is rare, regardless of where you go but for the cheaper fodder, it's always better just to buy in the US even at etsy prices.

Yes, It's the 116520... ;)

I'm jealous man!!! I wish I was able to afford it back in day when they were available at an AD but now its a ****** waiting game and impossible to get unless I buy via grey market which is probably what I'll end up doing since I dont have enough of a relationship with any AD to grease the wheels. My last rolex for the collection (only want 3) will be a Daytona w/black bezel, not sure if I want white or black dial :devil:
