Seriously funky Ricoh with a tonneau streamline stainless steel case. Beautiful cotes de Geneve pattern dark purple grey dial with Date and day at 6 o'clock. I have been resisting in wearing it for ages and although Ricoh watches aren't in the same league of some of the highend Swiss watches and I consider many of them possess more charm and character.
