New NAFT with Kanji

Post by 59yukon01 » Wed Apr 18, 2018 5:20 pm

Apparently these are now being listed as Japan Editions. I'm interested, but when they come down to normal Turd prices.

So one can assume this SBDY015 will have a kanji day wheel a well?

Interesting. The dial appears to read “Made in Japan” on the black one. Prior models just said “movt Japan” or nothing if I recall correctly.

The SRP777 I bought from Kohl's has "MOV'T JAPAN" printed on the dial. The gray-market SRP775 I have does not.

This SRP777J did say made in Japan, so not sure why they are saying these are Japan Editions due to the only change of the kanji, which me likey.

I'm enjoying my ninja turtle so far and all this does is make me want another 777. or the grey sunburst sprc23.

I wonder if the day wheel will be able to be sourced and then swapped out..
