Have you ever wanted to own a watch that a celebrity wears?

If you look closely at their wrists, you will notice that many celebrities wear top-notch luxury watches, with "stylish designs" and "luxurious, eye-catching watches."

So this time, we will focus on the wrist of Kenji Yamauchi of the comedy duo "Kamaitachi," who is completely addicted to watches. He is well-known for both his stand-up comedy and comedy sketches, and since winning "King of Conte 2017," he has been in high demand for many programs. It is no exaggeration to say that he is "the busiest comedian right now," as there is not a day that goes by without seeing him on TV. In addition, on his own YouTube channel "Kamaitachi Channel," which has over 2 million subscribers, he also talks about his love of watches, and his obsession with them is nothing short of spectacular. What kind of watch does Kenji Yamauchi, who has become so obsessed with the charms of luxury watches, wear? Please enjoy until the end.

First one
[Rolex]
"Daytona"
"Ref.116506"

The first model we would like to introduce is the Rolex Daytona Ref. 116506, which is the top-of-the-line professional model .

Featuring a chestnut brown Cerachrom bezel and a refreshing ice blue color scheme, this watch has been extremely popular since its release in 2013, the 50th anniversary of the Daytona, due to its rarity and high design. It was discontinued at Watches and Wonders Geneva in 2023 when its successor, the Ref. 126506, was announced, but it is still rare and the market price remains high.

Second one
[Patek Philippe]
"Nautilus Petit Complication"
"Ref.5712/1A-001"

The second is the long-selling model "Ref. 5712/1A-001," released in 2006 to commemorate the 30th anniversary of its birth.

Equipped with the "Cal.240 PS IRM C LU" movement, a derivative of the ultra-thin "Cal.240" that represents Patek Philippe, this watch has a petite complication mechanism, but the case thickness is only 0.22mm thinner than the three-hand model "Ref.5711/1A-010" released at the same time. In addition, with its elegant blue color and well-balanced dial, this is an attractive watch that combines high technical skill and design.

Third
[Patek Philippe]
"World Time Flyback Chronograph"
"Ref.5935A-001"

The third is the Patek Philippe World Time Flyback Chronograph Ref. 5935A-001, announced as a new model for fall 2022.

This watch features a vibrant rose gold-plated opaline color that catches the eye, and features a distinctive carbon-like design in the center of the dial. The design is based on the "Ref. 6007A-001," which was released in 2020 to commemorate the opening of the new Geneva factory and was limited to 1,000 pieces. The case diameter has been increased from 39.5 mm to 41 mm, and the model number has been changed from the previous "Ref. 5930" to "Ref. 5935." The grained taupe-colored calf strap also creates an elegant look.

Fourth
[Patek Philippe]
"Calatrava Watch Art Grand Exhibition Tokyo 2023"
"Ref.6127G-010"

Finally, we would like to introduce the Patek Philippe Calatrava Watch Art Grand Exhibition Tokyo 2023 "Ref. 6127G-010", which was announced to commemorate Patek Philippe's event in Tokyo.

This watch comes in a set with the 31mm lilac-toned purple Ref. 7127G-010, and is limited to 400 pieces, of which 300 are sold as a set and 100 are sold individually. The 36mm case is just the right size for Japanese wrists, and features a pastel color scheme of lacquer blue. The back cover is engraved with "PATEK PHLIPPE TOKYO," indicating that it was made specially for this event.

He also owns several other watches, so we'll be keeping an eye on Kenji Yamauchi's activities and his wrist to see what model he will buy next!
