And now in actually interesting watch news, these have been announced by Seiko
Seiko Presage "Sharp Edges" series
Nicely finished, 39mm cases, 6R35 movements
The dial is inspired by a traditional hemp leaf pattern from the Heian period (794-1185) and apparently symbolise growth and prosperity
And you can buy all 4 of them for less than the cost of one of the recent Rolex releases (they're $1,000-ish each)
@noelle 10:10 is actually a long-standing standard for photographing watches for marketing materials, everyone does it
it's a position that's nice and symmetrical, doesn't cover up any of the bits on the dial like date window, text at the bottom, etc, and it frames the brand name and/or logo that's usually at 12
also it looks a little like a smiley face
