This was supposed to be an ongoing blog of interesting (if not worthwhile) links and my commentary about them. I'd planned to update it daily, then weekly, and then I gave up before even reaching ninety posts. I make no guarantee these links work anymore, or if they do, that they're worth visiting.

A great number of the cool watches sold in America come from Japan. Even more cooler watches never make it across the Pacific, at least not to Bloomingdale’s. Tokyo Flash is an importer of interesting watches from Japan, ranging from wacky Spoons and DJ Honda classics to even stranger and high tech (like one that did six language translations of about 8000 words). The prices seem pretty reasonable for such unique watches, and the selection is fantastic.

  1. People are willing to spend $100 to $200 for a watch having a solid warranty (12 months or
    more).Not to say other countries don’t excel at industrial design, but Japan are excellent at
    this.
