Getting away from the G-shock trend, and following in the steps of Bapex, Tokyo kingpins “FATYO” are putting out their own “FATIME” watch. This “Daytona” based design is a collabo with Zozotown’s Dedue store for Fat’s 6th Anniversary. Most details are kept true to the Rolex’s original version. Color-wise, the watch face comes in comes in black, green, blue, and yellow. Though it talks the talk, this watch unfortunately does not have diving capabilities. So you can get it wet in the rain but you won’t be going all out with it.
