    Wow. I was nervous for you at first but that is a nice watch and amazing opening experience. Definitely a positive feedback going their way.

    Yesterday I received my first watch purchase from Japan. Like you it was delivered in a few days by DHL. The watch was preowned and exceeded what I was expecting. The packaging was very much like yours except I did not get the watch in a box. However it was packed extremely well. I was very happy with the seller.

    When you told us about you having bought a watch from Japan . I have it slightly wrong but Casio . Citizen and Seiko are Japanese and they seem to do okay Its just the way that most folk buy them that differs from the way you bought your watch.

    Wowow! I’d reccomend buying from Japan yahoo auctions. Great seikos there for like 1000 yen each (£5). Got an omega on there for £18. If you know what you are doing with a proxy and stuff it can be a great money changer!

    The Japanese are meticulous and care about what they do, that is why I have high regard for them and their history,
    Nice watch and the Champaign dial pops if you like that colour.
