Really cool to see some old JD watches. The current JD, in my opinion, is a pure marketing product aimed at the Chinese market. All the obsession with the number "8" is really riding on the Chinese being obsessed with anything "8" since it is pronounced similarly as "fa" meaning wealth, rich, fortune... you get the point. The two circles on the dials (creating a subtle "8") and everything is limited runs in 28, 38, 68 pcs.
I've never seen a JD outside of Asia but have seen ADs in both Hong Kong and Macau. Especially at the casinos...
