Agh, apologies for size, I'll edit if it's a problem.

His work is amazing, great cuts and outstanding details. You have to get used to the fit, but if you once have, the feeling is great. Comfortable clothes for daily wear with a strong artisanal as well as sporty approach. I've recently purchased the FW15-16 wool sweat pant at hide-m and what can I say, I simply love it. This was my first Murakami item, but definitely not the last...

Would love to learn a bit more about the watch he produced... the type of movement it has, where it is from etc. etc.
Details seem to be a bit difficult to find online.www.AlbertHuangMD.com - Digital Portfolio Of Projects & Designs

Hi Chinoriz- I went to hide-m's site for Murakami's watch- it is swiss made quartz, so I'd say you are buying the face, not the movement.
A belated congratulations on your wife's watch gift to you. This also brings me to the second point on the Murakami watch. It is 32mm dia. I've mentioned this before, but think about the size. I have small wrists and don't think I'd be happy with anything much smaller than 42mm.
That said it is a really beautiful watch

The smaller face on the Murakami watch echoes his accessory aesthetics for sure then... thin, small, out of the way... just like his glasses, pendants and other things. Too bad he went with quartz movement although reliable, it seems to be opposite the detail/design approach that he has with his garments. I would have expected perhaps a Japan-made automatic movement... maybe Seiko movements or something along those lines.www.AlbertHuangMD.com - Digital Portfolio Of Projects & Designs

^ Yes, I understand the watch's reflection of other accessories. But I don't think consistency should be at the expense of successful design.We (the fans) are missing out on a larger surface, which is also what the watch is about. More face time!
Also, this is someone who has made parkas with hoods and high necklines that threaten to engulf the wearer. I humbly suggest that a larger watch would be a great transition between the huge and diminutive.

Yeah at that price point I would have hoped for automatic or maybe manual wind movement. These days neither should cost all that much if you aren't going for crazy, custom, hand finished stuff.www.AlbertHuangMD.com - Digital Portfolio Of Projects & Designs

I saw on Instagram that Hostem have the watch in sterling. Beautiful face and details but I am not a watch geek so don't know about the technical details and movement. Here is a link: https://www.instagram.com/hostemppl/?hl=en

It would be great if one cane wear little bit loose T-shirts with some great prints like marijuana leaves, cannabis, weeds etc.
Most of the youngsters will like to wear fashionable and chill clothing, which give a great looks to youngsters.
