Bargain gem

I just thought I would share this little beauty with my fellow crunchers!

A bit of an impulse buy but one I am so glad I did

As you may or may not know I am on a bit of a fascination with watches from japan

So this is the JDM only Casio Oceanus T200 and I paid around £300 shipped from Japan,

Image

But what suprised me is the level of finishing , quality and unique features on this treat of a watch,

The indecies are 'floating' which is a really nice design

Image

The Sapphire crystal has a beautiful blue hue

The heat treat blue seconds hand is fantastic and matches the Oceanus logo

Image

The case finishing has some excellent brushing and polished edge and a polished bezel

Image

An octagonal crown, and the button on the lower right hand side of the case is for the watch to connect to the radio tower to apply your local time zone and atomic time

The watch is also solar powered yet the dial has a beautiful sunburst blue and i don't think you would ever know it was a solar cell.

All in all this purchase has really suprised me for how much watch you get for such little money,

Great looking strap! Where did you get it from? I own a T200 as well, but in a steel bracelet.

It's a beautiful watch

I really loved the Oceanus but the larger size (41mm) is too big for my wrist.

Lovely watch. Was very tempted to get one, but could not find them for £300, is that before import tax?
