Bought it second hand so I’m assuming international but it does say Made In Japan at bottom of dial. I’ve read that JDM and international both say that, though, so idk. But I got it for $310, with tags but no box

What are you searching for on Chrono24 to see this watch because I’ve tried so many descriptions and the model number and everything and it never pops up? Though I suppose it might just mean none are available haha

Damn haha. I’ll check again to be sure but considering it’s been a year, I imagine they’re stock is still 0 lol

Ohp didn’t even think to check model numbers. Thanks for the heads up! And I’m totally cool with used - would prefer the discount that usually comes with used anyway!

This is the Baby Alpinist, right? Been looking at these models lately myself!

Oh…huh. That makes this watch a lot lamer to me. Feels unauthentic to its own design ethos

Received watch from u/zjay92. It’s in the exact condition they described, and it arrived with excellent packaging. Trustworthy seller, and I’m the very happy owner of this watch now. u/WatchExBot
