What I would like you to pay more attention to is the case back. Generally speaking, sapphire crystal is transparent, but this is green. Since it is a model limited to Japan, it is said that it was inspired by the traditional color "Moegiiro" that has been used for kimono since the Heian period. The special colors that only the wearer can enjoy are really Japanese and stylish, aren't they? Behind it is the in-house chronograph movement, the caliber Heuer 02. The serial number and the characters of SPECIAL EDITION JAPAN are engraved around it. The strap is made of alligator, which is colored in the same black as the case body. Japan-only black carrera from with a chic and sophisticated impression. This goes perfectly with the black outfits that adults love. If you put it in a black nylon jacket and black cordy trousers, it will give you a modern and urban look.
