@saiyajedi, Wow, awesome! Thank you for supplementing with a great index😳 Originally, Chrono Tokyo was for the Japanese domestic market, and Kurono Bunkyo Tokyo was for the world market. It is now integrated into Kurono, and it seems that there will be no new releases under Chrono Tokyo.
@K A, こんにちは。KSもいろいろ種類がありますが、10万円を超えるのは一部だけですね。動画に出てる44KSの初期モデルも専門店で買って10万円はしないはずです(すごく状態が良かったりすると別ですが)。 それで今思い出したんですが、復刻された44KSのオリジナルは、厳密には「44KS クロノメーター」のほうですね💦 裏蓋が獅子マークで27 jewelsが目印です。そちらは25〜30万円コースですね😲

Great videos and collection, love the attention to detail in your videos. What are the straps on your KS and GS? I’m looking for a nice black strap for my 5646-7000, but can’t find one that suits it nicely. Cheers!

@slosync, hi. Thank you for loving this channel. I was very happy and felt like trying my best to make the next video😆 44KS strap is used for recent presages. The 19mm width is not in the current Presage lineup, so it’s the 20mm width. 57GS has an embossed calf leather strap. I don't know where it is because it doesn't have a brand name. I don't feel the need to stick to exotic leather because the embossed ones look good. 5646-7000’s case is simple, so the strap with a conspicuous leather pattern seems to fit. It's just my taste XD I'm sure any leather strap will look cool❗️

@@ToshiroUochi thank you for your reply and advice, I will watch your leather strap video again, it’s great 勉強 for watch lovers. The 5646-7000 was my father’s watch, so it holds a lot of sentimental value for me. I really enjoyed the なんでこれ買ったん? episode, it was really funny. It would also be great if you could do more videos like the 蚤の市 episode, giving advice on what to look for when buying vintage watches in second hand shops and Yahoo Auctions and Mercari. Thanks again, greetings from Peru. Cheers!

@slosync, It's a kanji! I was surprised! I'm proud to have watch lovers like you enjoy it☺️ Thank you for your feedback and ideas for my videos. The topic "Be careful when buying a vintage watch" is a theme I would like to take up. It's not an easy theme, so I'll complete it little by little👍 I will do my best to improve the quality of the videos I will make. The watch left by the family has a special meaning. My dad and grandfather had little interest in watches, so I don't have one. Certainly, it is not easy to choose a strap for such an important watch🤔 I hope you find the perfect strap.

@@ToshiroUochi my grandparents were japanese, so I can speak some 日本語, but writing is more difficult for me. I also dropped my dad’s GS to the floor, so I know how it feels😭, so I’m being extra careful now. Luckily, only the seconds hand came off, so I sent it to a friend of the family, who has been selling and repairing Seiko for more than 60 years. Can’t wait for your next video, keep up the good work. Cheers!

@slosync, the moment we drop watches, it feels like the time has stopped😱 Above all, it was good to be able to repair it. I'm convinced why you understand Japanese. Watch lovers wituout borders❗️ Best regards, brother👍
@ROBERT Y, 仕事でPCを使う時間が長いので金属ブレスは邪魔になりがち、アンド机で擦れちゃうんですよね。着用感も良いですし、仕事では革ベルト至上主義です(笑) おっしゃるように汗をたくさんかく真夏の時期は金属ブレスの腕時計を使うようにしたり、ベルトを変えたりしています。夏だけはどうしても別になりますね😢
