I ordered a 228238 with Japanese language waited for 4 months n since it is a gift for one of my manager on his retirement bash I in the end settled for a readily available English date/day wheel set. I hope he can can get it replaced at no cost when he migrate back to Tokyo. I also think the Chinese font could be improved too for easier legibility.
