No it's @Alex 's 30th birthday present, a Grand Seiko SBGA463, IMHO, a significantly better watch than the equivalent Rolex

And it was on the table whilst I cleaned my hands and wrists with a hit towel (as is customary before a meal in Japan) after a sweaty walk

It was indeed looking much better than the Rolex which is why it caught my attention.

S It's Puffer Fish
G What are these large round, soft bits
H Those are the male's testicles
G What!?
H Yes, I always feel a bit, sorry that I am eating my best friends......

I am also very excited for broken twill. What's the timeline?

That sort of Moorish Revival building in the middle of Japan is very intriguing and cool — wonder what it was/is? Looks old. So rad.
