Howdy folks! 

This month has been a perfect month! I just came back from my business trip to Japan, and look what i had brought home for my wife as an OMIYAGE  ! 


Wife with her her new FPJ TS remontoir, Moi with FPJ BLB DST=)

Enjoy some shots from my iphone.... First is my BLB DST....




The BLB DST under a straight spotlight... coarse beautiful black dial...




A perfect companion to attend formal events...




A purist's wrist shot!




And.... this is the newest member of our little horology kingdom..... *drums roll*


First day in action @ Omizudera, Kyouto. Enjoying the magic of ruthenium dial! Trust me.... its truly magical!!  =) 




A traditional formal dinner with Geisha-san




Spending the rest of the night in pachinko parlor...




Okonomiyaki aka Japanese Pizza @Osaka


Looks good even with casual wear!




Finally, my wife posing with her new horology toy=)


A perfect couple altogether....

Please excuse the iphone's photo quality! Thanks for looking!

Have a great weekend, mates! Cheers!

Alex
