Wow!

I've only ever seen another one of those at the Hirohito temple in Tokyo.

It is an incredibly rare piece made by Seiko for the emperor to give to his concubines. Made of platinum, with flawless diamonds. It most definitely is £££!















































Or it was made for the tower of London gift shop/QVC and cost £8.99.

Could it be? The very watch worn by Emperor Ming himself?!

Hang on, wasn't Emperor Ming from Flash Gordon? That had Timothy Dalton in didn't it? Such an underrated Bond, was doing the Daniel Craig thing before Daniel Craig did it. Wine makes me go off on tangents.
