I am going to write about wristwatch.

1. My old wristwatch

The right photo shows the watch I bought when I was a student (21years old). I remember its price about 30,000 Japanese yen. This watch is quartz type watch, that was new-type at the time.

Since then, I have used this watch for 30years. While this period, I have only one little trouble with this watch. The exchange frequency of electric battery is once per 4 years.

While 30 years, I have owned some watches such as digital type and made in Switzerland. However these watch had heavy damage in a few years.

The body of the watch I have used regularly for 30 years have had many very fine flaws on its surface. So I bought new one made by SEIKO a few years ago. In case of formal situation, I use new one. But usually I use old one I feel a strong attachment to.

This old watch has walked with me and stayed by me when I was painful or happy.
This old watch will stay by me till the end of my life.

The follwing photos show my new watch.
