  • In todays video we visit the island of Chios, Greece and hit the streets. We are on the look out for great vintage watches. I take you along with me as I go to different stores around the island and stop by the local shops on the hunt for vintage watches. I'll drop you some tips along the way in the video to help you in case you ever decide to do the same.

    Congratulations on 10,000. I want to get my younger brother a Christmas present, and he has always loved vintage Omegas. It would be a fantastic present for him, and it would mean the world if I won and I if I got to see the joy of him opening the present.

    Curious to know if Greece's sales culture involves bargaining? From where I'm from it seems to be the most common course of action whenever we want to purchase from small shops. Some are quite open to offers but some stores like larger ones of course do not allow them. Thanks for another great video Niko, seeing you browse through the store's catalogue was fun!
