I know what it is but I won't spoil it for you. Congrats on a discontinued model.   :thumbsup:

All my packages from Katsu-san arrived within 3-4days as well. Not sure why yours took 1 week. Maybe the customs officers wanted to have a good look at it. ;)

No, the box was still intact with the JP label still intact. I thinks its because the item reach another city instead of the city in my area. Something like I am in Ipoh while the parcel reach KLIA.

Sorry, abit busy now. Will do write up later on.

It is similar to one of the diver i reviewd last time (go check up the watch review) this watch i think share the same case and hand design as that one but come with a better bracelet than that one. I can just set and forget as the date will adjust itself automatically. The watch accuracy is rated 20 +/- per year with 8 year battery  :thumbsup:

SOmehow i enjoy looking at teh watch ticking instead of gliding and yes it looks much better than the mid size 7s26 diver i had too ;D
