...we were visiting Tokyo in 2019 and got a few things (shirts, stuffed animals, etc.) with the Tokyo 2020 logo on them. But that watch is special : )

The Tokyo 2020 Olympics (that never were!) Speedmaster nicknamed the “Rising Sun.” It’s a bit unique. A limited edition; if you can really call 2020 pieces limited🤣Hope all are enjoying a beautiful weekend! Cheers!!! ...  

Thank you my friend. I am quite fond

Oh no. I have many Omegas.

Many flavors. Would you like to see them? I know they are your favorite!

Hell, yes! Show 'em all! . . .

. . . I didn't know you had any; why I'm surprised is kind of a surprise in itself.

Yeeees, go, Ed, go!

some Tokyo 2020 merchandise from one of their pop up Olympic shops. Alas, the 2020 games never came to be. So it’s quite a unique story. Thanks for your very nice comment.

Yes! We were at a popup shop in Shinjuku station...

First, its really pretty. Secondly, I love the whole Tokyo OL story that never happened. There is just something about that thing that makes it extra special

I agree, Christian, and the color combination

is unique and really pleasing too. The burgundy bezel and accents are really nice. Reminds me a bit of the Rolex Steel with Platinum bezel Yachtmaster; another beautiful watch.

This is nice!

Definitely part of the history of that thing that happened back in 2020. Love that Omega red bezel, and that dial!

Me too! Thank you!
