Recent pics of my Hajime Asaoka Tsunami

Sep 12, 2020,18:02 PM
 

Enough of Rolex pics for now smile
How about an Indie from the Far East ?

Some recent shots of my Hajime Asaoka Tsunami Classic which I shared on my Instagram but didn’t have time to share here until now.

The movement plates are crafted from German silver hence the golden look with patina.

Hope you enjoy these pics ! smile

Cheers
Robin

 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 12th, 2020-20:19
I still love my Rolexes especially the recent sports models . But I can understand the frustrations on the waitlist front. But this Hajime Asaoka made me wait the longest amongst any watch in my collection ! Almost a 3 year wait and my AD told me now it’s... 

It’s a joy to watch it oscillating :) [nt]

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 12th, 2020-23:05

Looks fabulous Robin!

 
 By: Noak(marc.gmt8) : September 12th, 2020-23:32
I am interested. Mind sharing how you ordered this via DM? Thanks!

I got it thru the AD in Singapore

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 12th, 2020-23:55
Drop me a pm and I can let you have the details of my AD. Recently quite a few people have asked and I heard the waitlist is like 8 years now though as Hajime is a one man show - need a lot of patience to buy his watches ! Also I heard the Tsunami Classic... 

Thanks for these stunning pictures

I am in the middle of my journey.

 
 By: crisarto73 : September 13th, 2020-02:43
Congratulation! I have still one an half years to wait unfortunately.. This pieces is very particular because the big balance wheel but moreover for its dial covered with these very particular Japanese lacquers. Pretty unique piece. I also heard that the ... 

Yes the Tsunami Deluxe is 40 to 50% higher in price

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 13th, 2020-04:19

This watch speaks so much to me. Every time I see it, I’m so impressed. Both sides are really appealing to me. What is your Instagram?

Most welcome my friend

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 13th, 2020-18:59
My IG is watchthebin but you can also search for me with jrwong23 which has been my purist handle for many years now. Lots of memories here IG is good for pic eye candy but can never replace the community here !

Thank you so much

 
 By: ChristianDK : September 13th, 2020-19:13
Agree about IG. It’s great for making a back catalogue but the community ant the continuity here can not be replaced 😊

Indeed my friend

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 15th, 2020-07:17
So many friends here for years and decades

Huge congrats! The dial is super.

 
 By: MichaelC : September 16th, 2020-17:58
The excessive wait time is a turn off, but worthwhile obviously. My only visual criticism is the length of the hour hand... it should be a bit shorter, IMO. Huge congrats to you my Friend!

Thank you Michael !

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 18th, 2020-06:26
Indeed the hour hand can be shorter - agree

Thanks Michael !

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : October 16th, 2020-07:56
I heard from my AD this dial which is the Tsunami Classic is no longer for order. The new dial is for the Tsunami Deluxe

Thanks for sharing this

 
 By: Rosneathian : September 26th, 2020-08:17
It's beautiful. I'm sure the three-year wait was worth every moment.

Thank you! Yes worth the wait :) [nt]
