Watches - another OCD problem

[chiverus]

Just got back from Japan. Tokyo is amazing for vintage watches - especially JDM models - so I picked up a Seiko Speedtimer 6139-7060 from my birth year! More than 52 years old but mint dial and original bracelet.

This is my daily driver. Seiko Darth Tuna.

@1WayTrip amazing watch, I just wish it didnt have a monocoque case

@chiverus I am a Seiko junkie! I've dreamt of going watch picking in Japan, maybe more than going denim picking.

@StarsSuck if you ever get the dream trip arranged I can send you a list of amazing watch shops

Hi @chiverus - I would love that list, if you don't mind. I will be in Japan in 5 weeks. I will be travelling around, but I have the most time to shop in Osaka.

@Anesthetist

Yes is a pain but the battery lasts years so not too bad.

I do have a easier to access Tuna also but doesn’t get much wrist time these days.

@chiverus I would be super keen to see that list, heading to Japan for the first time later this year.

@hjl360

@chiverus has placed a list of stores in this thread

[StarsSuck]

@chiverus send me the list whenever you can. The trip is happening, probably not this summer, likely in the winter.
