Yamanote Watch

The perfect watch for the Japanophile. I would have got this watch straight away if they sold these while I was still in the UK.
Folks who have been to Tokyo will recognize these as the electronic bulletin boards which tell you when the next train is coming or how many mins the train is going to be late due to somebody jumping in the tracks. The watch however only tells the time - no train arrival schedule.
The price for these are 25,200 yen for a metal or 23,100 yen for a plastic strap from Seahope Japan who dont know knowt about SEO because I cant even find their official site.
