    @the246guy:

    Is that a Rolex watch unattended by its owner?

    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.

              Brilliant, but so stupid exchange tonight…

              G What is this fish we are eating?
              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......

              It actually got even more stupid and risqué after that, but even I will not repeat in public.....

                            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.

                                      Billed as 14 but the way he have woven is that it is super dense to give it a dark face so it feels more like 17oz. Traditional broken twill denim is woven under very high tension to give it a smooth face, ours is woven with lower tension in the earl to give the face plenty of character.

                                      All cuts would be the plan…..
