Ginza 7...ARRIVAL!!!
My dear TRF friends, it has finally arrived. I went to the AP Boutique in Tokyo, Japan this past June. Although I had dreamed and thought about it, I had to see the Ginza 7 in person (even if I didn't have the cash on hand to buy ASAP). The future Mrs understands my addiction and humored the detour.This only made things worse. I'd think about it all the time. two months passed by... I decided... It was time.A ticket was booked. Calls were made. Emails were sent to the boutique. A wire transfer was put in place. Essentially this became a mission to extract a carbon timepiece from Japan. The only thing was I was going to be in a part of Japan a ways away from Tokyo. So I told the boutique I need delivery...No problem they said.Two days after sending a wire they told me it was on it's way...And now, I present to you...my grail and very first Forged Carbon Offshore as well as my third AP Offshore overall...THE GINZA 7 FORGED CARBON!!! (with mandatory unboxing)
