We are not worthy
Most of us have "a real life" with family, job, etc. but some are retired like myself, and we while away our time buying and selling and fooling around with our watches, cars, corkscrews and cameras.
We have talked about expanding my Grand Seiko Master Database but the very thought makes me a bit tired. But today I re-discovered a site (forgotten for some years) which is the reason we don't need to do that.
Let me say first that I am not a fan of redirecting people to other places on the web, because building a community HERE is what we are all about.
With that said, let me introduce the Plus 9 Time database which is run by a fan of Japanese watches who is ever so meticulous and obsessed:
A SUMMARY PAGE
SEARCH ENTRY PAGE
SEARCH RESULT PAGE WITH NO VARIABLES REQUESTED (one page worth of 1077 entries)
SEARCH RESULT FOR TITANIUM CASE (one page worth)
SEARCH RESULT FOR BLUE DIAL AUTOMATIC MOVEMENT
SEARCH RESULT FOR PLATINUM CASE
ORIGINAL PRICE & PRODUCTION NUMBER STATS (one page worth, prices in Yen)
I am not worthy (but I have a life outside too). What do you guys think?

Lock up your wallet & have fun searching!
I already found one that would get me in serious trouble...
I've been waiting for someone to get the new Ti high beat
That really intrigues me. I think deliveries started in aug
He’s been doing a great job for years 😊👍🏻
On all Japanese watch brands AFAIK 👏🏻 Now that does answer the question of whether a renewed database is necessary 😊 Thanks for posting - been following him on IG for news but not looked at the database 👍🏻
Hardly…
There’s dry spreadsheets and then there’s people bringing it all to life. Even if the former is taken care off, we still need you for the latter 👏🏻👌🏻👍🏻
Thanks!
Mining Raw data and forcing it into Structures is what I did for a living (not watch info, but vehicle info) and so being relieved of that responsibility leaves me free to concentrate on the more interactive parts of the watch hobby. Yay! ...
I doubt it, but it could be a much smaller universe. Here's some Credor info I dug up a few years ago:
INTRO TO CREDOR MOVEMENTS CREDOR MEN'S WATCHES CREDOR WOMEN'S WATCHES
Kudos
Thanks a lot, I'll check it out. Credit is kinda like Piaget in prime - absolute sea of references, hard to come by some more exotic pieces and everyone can find something to like.
I guess I don't have a life - I'm 1/3 through JLC and up to 8971 references indexed so far... all started by a search for the missing 37mm watches
Here's the latest overview of case diameters ... hand styles, anyone? at some point I will sort out how to make the data available - I'm open to suggestions/pointers.... ...
