Casio Film Watch Pela - FS-01 Mayfly Tokyo edition

This watch is another of the Casio Film Watch (Pela) range and is the FS-01 model.
This film watch is an Ana-Digi version, with the main part of the display being an electrically operated dial. Below that display is a small inverse LCD screen where the other watch functions are displayed.

The watch uses a 2321 module, with analogue display, digital display (with time, dual time, and stopwatch). The dial display is set by a small button on the left side which spins the hands when held down.

This model is a special edition in a range of Pela Film Watches released in conjunction with Mayfly Tokyo, incorporating ethnic designs, and arabesque strap designs. This particular watch appears to be the FS-01TY-6E (although the strap colour is slightly different) and includes a picture of a phoenix on the strap (other models had either a phoenix or a dragon on the strap). This model was named Oriental Violet. There were also versions from Mayfly New York, and Mayfly London, which had different strap patterns and different images of the two mythical creatures.
