Today's watch is another by the avant garde Japanese fashion designer Kansai Yamamoto.
Kansai Yamamoto is a very famous designer in Japan, and known around the world as the designer for David Bowie's Ziggy Stardust outfits.
This watch is part of a range of watches called Body Max, which seems to have been a little sportier than the other watches, but the range also includes other accessories such as scarves and coats. Both the back and the strap have the statement 'Body Max designed by Kansai Yamamoto', and the watch face just has the words Body Max (although the text actually reads BodY Max as the Y doesn't go below the line).
The watch is a large and deep 3 hand dial design. The glass appears quite thick, with a slight magnification of the white face with clear black text. The crown is hidden under a screw cap that is fastened to the watch case with a chain, so although the watch doesn't say it, it looks like it should be quite water resistant. Inside is a Japanese quartz movement, but I haven't checked on the brand.
I'm not sure when this are out, but some sites have mentioned the 90s or 00s, and I have no reason to disagree.
