In the end, "just the right size" is the best

Recently, the effects of fasting have continued,
I am happy every day that I was able to keep my weight at 60kg (lol).
However, I can't help but feel that my physical strength has decreased a little along with my weight.
I am concerned that the training weight has decreased a little.
This will probably resolve itself over time.

Now, the impact of the coronavirus continues.
There are still days when it is difficult to go out and eat out, which I love.
I can't even go to the new pizzeria that opened in my neighborhood.
Although you can eat it if you take out,
It's not about solving the problem,
Sometimes you want to dress up and have a delicious meal.

I think the meaning of "dressing up" varies depending on the person.
I always think that dressing up means being polite to others.
For example, this is common when going to a restaurant,
There are probably very few people who dress sloppily or dirty.
Going to a restaurant with proper attire is
The store staff, the people who prepare the food, other customers, etc.
I think it's the bare minimum of courtesy to "people" other than yourself.
I would like to express my gratitude to each and every one of you,
That's unrealistic and too much (lol)
That's why I dress properly and go to the store.

While there are not many stores in Japan that have a "dress code,"
There are minimum dress code rules overseas.
Dress up to get into the store.
Isn't that a wonderful story?
I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that my thoughts and feelings are reflected in my clothes.
I go to such stores to "match the answers" to those questions.
You may embarrass your family and friends just because of your appearance.
I don't like that, so I'm always careful.

When you become an adult, there are many things you can learn that are not taught at school.
This time, I wrote down my thoughts on "sizing".

What kind of clothes do men think are the coolest?

There are probably many people who will answer "in a suit".
Well, I'm wearing jeans and a white T-shirt.
Men who look good in the 90's Eisaku Yoshida style are cool without any questions asked.
But that's only possible because she has a good face and style.
Ordinary people don't do that.

While there is "diversity" in clothing these days,
I think "suit style" is something that hasn't changed since then.
However, if you do the styles of the 1930s and 40s in modern times,
It just looks like cosplay.
“If you like it, it’s fine” is self-righteous so I’ll ignore it (lol)

Classic style was the trend until a few years ago.
Nowadays, digital evolution is progressing further,
People prefer a more relaxed suit style.
Like a suit made of stretch material, a T-shirt, and sneakers.
However, I think the ``basics'' remain the same.

Speaking of the basics of a suit, it is "size".
There are good and bad fabrics and designs,
Isn't the most basic of all basics the size?
Nowadays, ready-made suits range from pins to pins,
Ready-made products are sized according to the "average value", so
Just because something is expensive doesn't mean it will fit your size.

In my case, I have a large chest and torso and thin arms and legs for my height, so
Basically, most off-the-shelf suits don't suit me.
So I have no choice but to make suits etc. to order.
In terms of price, it is cheaper than a ready-made suit from a select shop.
Because it fits my body type,
I'm still wearing the one I made over 5 years ago.

Recently, the number of semi-custom tailors has increased,
Suits are becoming more familiar than ever before.
In line with this, shoe stores have also expanded their lineup,
In any case, ``clocks'' are not like that.

Although current watches have become smaller recently,
Many watches are still larger than the width of your wrist.
Furthermore, some media even recommend a diver's watch with a suit.
I'm prepared to criticize this, but wearing a suit with a large watch such as a diver's watch...
It's "uncool".

Just because ``007 Bond'' wears a suit and a diver's watch,
That's a movie story, and the character is a spy.
Ordinary people are neither actors nor spies.
Therefore, I think it is better to choose a properly sized watch for your suit.

There are such thoughts and ideas,
Since our opening, we have emphasized the importance of the size of watches.
I adjust my clothes and shoe sizes to fit me,
It goes against the grain to not match the size of your watch.
Own only one high-quality watch,
I don't deny using just that, but
You can also carry several affordable watches to match your outfit and occasion.
Partly because of this, you can choose watches of various sizes and designs at an affordable price.
We still carry many watches.

However, recently, due to the coronavirus, there are fewer opportunities to go out.
I feel like there's been an increase in news and voices saying, ``I don't buy things anymore.''
Even though it's temporary, I feel a little sad.
Personally, I think times like this are the best time to ``choose something good.''
But you don't have to have a lot of good things either.
The bare minimum required is sufficient.

Personally, I only need three watches.
Watches with leather straps, watches with bracelets, and watches that can be broken to be used on days off.
It goes without saying that watches with leather straps go perfectly with suit styles.
It is very useful as it is easy to match with clean casual clothes.
Bracelet watches are better than sports models that are large and have many functions.
I think it's best to have something elegant that can be matched with a summer suit.
To be precise, a watch that can be broken is something that is hard to break but is cheap.
In other words, a watch like a G-Shock is best.
There are various G-Shocks these days, so
The range of choices is much greater than before.

However, the best thing to have at least is a bracelet watch.
Depending on the shape, many can be replaced with a leather belt.
Above all, once you buy a watch, you can use it forever.
Of course maintenance is required, but
It doesn't matter where or what you buy.
However, some watches do not require maintenance fees.





The Santos Octagon comes with a "lifetime warranty", which I introduced in a previous blog.
If Cartier determines that overhaul is necessary due to normal use,
Complete service = the best content, with machine replacement free of charge for a long time.
However, there are some conditions, so please be careful.
If you do not use it in any particular way, you can receive the complete service for free without any problems.

There are great things about such services,
Above all, the size of the watch is exquisite.
Looking at it now, it looks like the size of a ladies' watch.
This is the LM size at that time.
Once your eyes get used to a large watch, it will feel small, but
This size makes the watch look cool.
And it's easy to use.

A watch sticking out of your sleeve is never cool.
A watch of just the right size that fits neatly on your sleeve.
I think this is the most suitable watch for suit style.
It would be great if it also had good design and service.

Lately, I've been thinking about things I want to have before I die, probably because I have a lot of free time.
For now, "dying" is not on my schedule (lol)
But before I knew it, I turned 40, and in the blink of an eye, I turned 50 and then 60.
I don't want to be in a room full of unnecessary things.
You just need to have a few things that you really like.
When I think about it, do I want this Santos Octagon?

As your physical strength declines, there are bound to be changes in your belongings as well.
At times like this, if there is something you can say, ``This is all you need.''
I feel like I can overcome anything.

There aren't many watches with such great content, so
If you like it, please hurry!
