Since I am forbidden to buy any watches for awhile while we do some house remodeling/painting (guess who gets to swing a brush...blah!) I figured I would go out with a biggie!
I have looked at the Tuna for a long time and always hesitated for 2 reasons:
1. Quartz
2. Return to Japan for battery change
I like quartz watches, so really it was the thought of shipping back to Japan that stopped me every time. One of the guys over on WUS got one, and I hear it is a 5 year battery life. I figure that is pretty darn good, and I had to ship something back to Japan over the summer and it wasn't as big a pain in the neck as I thought it would be. I am pretty used to sending watches out for repair by now anyway (my O&W chrono went to a watchmaker yesterday for a COA). So I jumped on it from a Japanese dealer. The best part is I had "reward points" from Paypal, for $100! It only cost me $335 w/shipping :D
Keeping my fingers crossed that I will have this on later today, sorry for the crummy photo I stole off the web.
Cheers,
Griff
