On Tokyo time

Posted Aug 10, 2009

As we all know Japanese trains run like clockwork - until now that is, when they actually run on digital time. Courtesy of cult Tokyo store, Tokyu Hands, we investigate their new watch release.

In most countries, the idea of a watch that lets you know what time a train is expected would be banned by the goverment. In Japan however, and quite rightly so, the train schedule is something to be proud of and as such has been incorporated into this new watch style.

Available on Tokyu Hands online store www.hands-net.jp/goods we predict a (commuter) riot.
