Ryo's Watch on Ebay, but it's a little out of my price range

Postby BackinBlack » Thu May 29, 2003 8:11 pm

Hey folks,

Was searching ebay and found someone selling the rare Shenmue watch that was released as a promotional item for the game. Only thing is, he's selling it at $185!

Ah well....

thats not even the watch from shenmue, cause the atlantis 100 is / was only made in digital. there was never an analog version of that watch. this is a fake and the guy is bullshittin.

strange there isn't any mention of the game on the box or anything else , just 2 icons stuck on the strap (which could be added easily) ;)

The Watch is REAL, no Fake. But it is NOT the watch Ryo is wearing, it is JUST a "Shenmue Watch", an official item that Timex released in Japan when the game came to Japanese stores...


Look here, if you don´t believe me:

It's a nice-looking watch, and one I'd like to someday have, but at around $260 I don't think that's going to happen. It's ridiculously overpriced. :x

yeh it is a proper shenmue watch, but the analog one is more accurate loking to the one in the game and is better IMO.

Pffft!

U can buy a WHITE version of Ryo's watch in Argos for £29.99! I mean the face behind the hands is WHITE instead of BLACK, as it is in Shenmue. Timex Expedition is the model name. It's not identicle but it's the most genuine one yet I think (i own it, thankyouverymuch!)
