The bezels are ceramic. The process of making ceramic case is far more involved and expensive. I would bet you will never see proper rep of any ceramic case HBB.
I always wear one and bring one. One is always more formal (leather strap) and the other more sporty (bracelet or rubber). I have had customs look through my stuff but only when returning into the home country. The simple answer "one for day and one for evening" is both convincing and true.
It is really too bad no one can get to Honpo these days as they are the only one with a ti case 194. It was an excellent rep in the first place. That one would be far superior to any of the 187's currently available. Given that Honpo relocated to China it is very surprising that no other dealer has sourced this yet.
Mellow yellow is the only way to go. Proper ceramic bezel (as are all the ceramic bezels) and SS case - as it should be and complete with all proper markings.
Huh, there must be a better forum for ranting on about Japanese porn. Jumbie- It is so helpful to know you have a vast porn collection. Congratulations? I suspect this a conversation which is better had with your porn dealer.
Mine is EMS - that is what gets the watches back and forth to Rob. With that the only other tool I need is a watchwinder. I hate having to reset all those day/dates. I do screw off the caseback and play around inside or change a strap every once in a while to "get my hands dirty". The problem with "getting my hands dirty" is that it usually results in someone else getting his hands dirty to fix my mess. Ask Rob about the toaster incident.
