The short version

103 Watson is a sponsor group of 3 issuers that PartnerFacts links to one sponsor (shared people, same business address; automatic match from the filings), filing 8 Form D filings between Mar 2010 and Feb 2018.

What this means One team, 3 deal companies, about 8 years of track record in SEC filings. We link the companies because the same people or address appear on their forms — tap "Request a correction" if that is wrong.

Combined reported sold: $14.1M to 78 investors (latest filing per issuer). Industries as reported: Pooled Investment Fund (1), "Other" (1), Commercial (1). Issuers are based in WI (3).

What this means $14.1M raised across the group, about $180K per investor. Amounts come from each company's latest Form D; they are what the sponsor reported, not audited figures.

Principal people: David Marcus (3 issuers, executive officer and promoter), Christopher Nolte (1 issuer, executive officer and promoter), Haruki Toyama (1 issuer, executive officer and promoter) and Marcus Asset Management, LLC (1 issuer, executive officer and promoter, entity).

What this means The person on the most companies is usually the one running the show; their page lists every deal.

Activity: 0 new offerings in the last 12 months; latest filing Feb 16, 2018.

What this means No new raise filed in the past year.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CT, DE, FINRA, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY), property records (NYC, FL, IL and TX counties) — none found.

What this means Nothing turned up where we looked (4 sources). That does not prove there is nothing — it means none was found in those sources on that date.

We compared 8 public filings for 103 Watson and found 5 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: Amount sold went down between filings; and more below.

What this means These are differences between the sponsor's own SEC filings — both values, dates and sources are listed in Key records, section 4. Most have ordinary explanations; ask the sponsor.

4. Differences between public sources

No comparisons published

What is compared

No public statement by this sponsor group has been collected yet, so there is nothing to compare. Sources compared: the sponsor's own website (known from the issuer's own filings — Form C issuer website, EDGAR company profile — an approved profile claim or Form ADV Item 1.I of its matched adviser) · SEC Form D · SEC Form ADV (IAPD) · Internet Archive · No website is on file for this sponsor group yet.

5 differences found between the filings for 103 Watson — 1 worth asking about (compared 8 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Mar 13, 2014 – Mar 12, 2015

Amount sold went down between filings — 103 Watson Fund LLC

The Mar 13, 2014 filing says $7,230,411 sold; the Mar 12, 2015 Form D/A says $6,778,144 sold — $452,267 less.

What this means Amounts sold normally only go up as a raise continues. A drop can mean investors were refunded, a figure was corrected, or an earlier number was wrong. Ask the sponsor which it was.

Form D/A (earlier) · Mar 13, 2014 ↗Form D/A (later) · Mar 12, 2015 ↗103 Watson Fund LLC — PartnerFacts page ↗
Sources
Note · Jan 25, 2018 – Feb 16, 2018

Form D filed 22 days after the first sale — MCO Grafton Commons LLC

The filing says the first sale was Jan 25, 2018. The Form D was filed Feb 16, 2018 — 22 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 7 days past that.

What this means A late notice is common and carries no penalty by itself. It is worth asking the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Form D · Feb 16, 2018 ↗MCO Grafton Commons LLC — PartnerFacts page ↗
Sources
Note · Apr 1, 2010 – Mar 12, 2015

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — 103 Watson Fund LLC (latest filing Mar 12, 2015)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Mar 12, 2015 (first sale Apr 1, 2010). It reports $6,778,144 sold of an indefinite amount offered. No later amendment is in our index as of Oct 24, 2026.

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. The raise may simply have ended — a Form D does not say when it closed. Ask the sponsor whether the offering closed, when, and at what amount.

Form D/A · Mar 12, 2015 ↗103 Watson Fund LLC — PartnerFacts page ↗
Sources
Note · Apr 6, 2011 – Apr 3, 2012

Minimum investment changed between filings — 103 Watson Fund LLC

The Apr 6, 2011 filing lists a minimum of $0; the Apr 3, 2012 Form D/A lists $250,000.

What this means A different minimum usually means the offering terms changed. Check which terms apply to you.

Note · Mar 12, 2015 – Feb 16, 2018

Member companies were formed in 2 different states

Wisconsin (2), Delaware (1) — out of 3 member issuers. The odd ones out: 103 Watson Fund LLC (Delaware).

What this means Sponsors often form each deal company in Delaware or Wyoming no matter where the property is. A mix is common; it just tells you which state's rules each company lives under.

What is compared

What is compared: every Form D and D/A we hold for this subject, side by side — filing dates vs. first-sale dates (the 15-day rule), amendment timing on open offerings (the yearly-amendment expectation), amounts sold, investor counts, offering amounts and minimums across amendments, industry and size bands, addresses, how each person's name and role is written, paid sellers' CRD numbers, and (for groups) where the member companies were formed and sit. Everything is as filed by the issuer; the SEC does not check it. Differences are common and usually have ordinary explanations — we show both values, the dates, and the source so you can ask. As of Oct 24, 2026.

How this is counted

Counts come from Form D Items 12–15 on the filings in our index (latest filing per offering; one offering = one SEC file number; an amendment updates its offering rather than adding one). "To insiders" = gross proceeds used for payments to executive officers, directors or promoters. "—" = not reported on that filing. Amounts marked (est.) were reported as estimates. "Paid to sell it" = sales compensation recipients named on that filing (Item 12), each linked to FINRA BrokerCheck when a CRD number is reported.

Counted across all 3 issuers in this group — every filing in our index, latest filing per offering (SEC file number).
