■ Buyer's comment
The moment I first picked up the SBPY187, I was impressed by its high-quality finish. Even within the same S series, it feels like it has a higher quality feel, and the attention to detail is perfect. The 42.2mm case size has a strong presence, but the sophisticated design makes it suitable for business situations. The bezel with a tachymeter gives it an authentic look, and it is also highly practical as a solar chronograph. Thanks to the Lumibrite, it can be used safely even in the dark, and I am convinced that it is a highly satisfying product worth the price of 51,700 yen. by Fujimuro
