[Seiko SCXP175] Was walking around some obscure part of Kyoto yesterday and spotted this piece in a small watch shop for 30,800¥. Such a beauty, I had to get it! (images4.imagebam.com)

I was shrine hunting in Kyoto when I walked into some random market with heaps of small shops. My friend and I were the only tourists there that I could see and we walked past this small watch shop and the yellow watch face caught my eye, not really a pokemon fan but the colour looks so nice!

That's one of those purchases you would be kicking yourself for years over if you hadn't bought it

After doing some more research I definitely agree! Turns out it's one of 1200 so I got really really lucky!

This is how I ended up with a 2 foot tall Bill Clinton puppet, but yes I agree.

Lovely find, gorgeous box.

The paw prints on the band are a massively cute detail. I really like the yellow.
