Dedegumo Unique Japanese Fashion Watches
Those of you who live in or visit New York City should check out a little boutique called Dedegumo. I recently learned about this shop and look forward to going there myself. Dedegumo has a few other store locations, but they are all in Kyoto, Japan. Dedegumo is a sort of watch maker. They don't make movements, but rather create artistic watch cases, dials, and strap.

Each of the watches comes in a 44mm wide (40mm for the Terranaut III) sanitized steel case that is between about 10-13mm thick (depending on the version).My top choice is the Terranaut I, which is the chronograph version with a Valjoux 7750 movement inside. The chronograph subdials are extra large and easy to read, which the subsidiary seconds dial being a cool looking rotating triangle. Neat huh? I think that Muhle Glashutte
