Chopard L.U.C 8HF and Cherry Blossom Weekend!
It's the season. Best timing is now, today or tomorrow. But, the weather is not ideal. Anyway, I went out today with my weekend watch - Chopard L.U.C 8HF.
What a crowd!!
We HAVE TO do this every year, or Spring doesn't come!

Finally, after long walk, a beer time 
Yebisu!
And, what an "attention to detail" spirit here! When wet, the coaster shows Yebisu-sama (The God of Wealth - one of the seven fortune Gods). I saw two nice things)

Lovely shots dear Ken

I had never seen one.
Yebisu is one of Sapporo's brand. And Sapporo has its own bar/ restaurant - Ginza Lion. I got puzzled... )

Hahaha. Yeah, glass and watch seem like my theme shot these days :-)) [nt]

A dark Yebisu with the 8HF should have been a publicity shot for the watch!
What a cool combination! Do you have a shot of the watch and the blossoms - should work quite well with your new strap
Hope to get an 8HF at some point, too - my next Chopard grail!

Sakura (Cherry blossom) park was really, really crowded and I just didn't feel comfortable to....
.. take moments to take watch and flower shot (although lots of tourists with "selfie stick(?)" stopped among the super crowded moving people and THAT was a bit annoying...). Great watch. Still my love level has not changed!
How could it change!
Such a great watch - hope Chopard decides to use the movement again. The sound is amazing (your video helps for those who have yet to see it) and it is so light and comfortable on the wrist.
To many more cherry blossom seasons with it!

Best time of the year. Miss the Sakura season! No better way to enjoy it than you are. Thanks for sharing! [nt]

Spring has come...
.. and lots of tourists have come.. Everywhere is crowded. Hope they enjoyed, too!
Yup, Sakura is all over the place, but the crowd is getting bigger and bigger every year.... :-)) [nt]

Amazing pics. The soft feel of the flowers a great contrast to the black matter on your wrist!
Great to see pics from the old hood. Was one of the early tenants when the tower opened in '03 and even managed to get a pic taken by Kishin Shinoyamas which was included in his book covering the early years of RH. Still looks great! Loved living there as well
Really? I was in New York back then....
.. and I still don't know well enough about the hood, although this place is walking distance from my place..... Nice, although small, Mouri Garden. But Sakura is actually everywhere. Now is one of the best time to be in Japan
Thank you so much for these!
And the watch really works wonderfully with the cherry blossoms...
While I save for my 8HF, I will have to find some flowers for the LUC Sport to pose with

Ken,
Nostalgia is tugging at my heart.
I miss Japan so much and even the current Mrs MTF wished we were there.
The Chopard bee leads the way home........
