Broadcast in April 1996, this drama became synonymous with the "Monday 9" slot and gained such popularity that it sparked a social phenomenon known as the "Long Vacation" phenomenon. "Long Vacation" starred Tomoko Yamaguchi and Takuya Kimura, and is said to be the breakthrough work for Takuya Kimura.
Sena, played by Takuya Kimura, is a sensitive and shy pianist. He is also a heavy smoker and wears a Hamilton watch on his wrist.
The Art Deco style "piping rock" form, which makes use of gentle curves, has left its mark in the history of wristwatch design. The beauty of the design and the unconventional specifications at the time proved Hamilton's high level of technical expertise, even surpassing Swiss watches.
The combination of Sena's white shirt and antique Hamilton is still a cool style.

" HERO " is a hit drama that has gained support from viewers all over Japan.
The story is light-hearted and suspenseful, and revolves around the protagonist, Kuriu Kouhei, played by Kimura Takuya, an unconventional prosecutor who doesn't wear suits and only has a middle school education, as he pursues the truth regardless of the size of the case.
The innovative character "Kuriu" played by "Kimura Takuya" gained popularity as a new hero that the world had been waiting for. The first season of this legendary drama "HERO" was broadcast in 2001, and the sequel, "HERO", was broadcast about 13 years later.

Speaking of Kimura, it is well known that he wore the Explorer, Ref. 14270 in the 1997 broadcast of "Love Generation", but this time he is wearing the successor model, the Ref. 114270. The combination of the simple Explorer with the casual fashion worn by "Kuriu Kouhei" is very cool.

The extremely stoic instructor, former detective and prosthetic eyed "Kazama Kimichika", wears a dazzling Casio G-Shock Full Metal watch. While retaining the concept inherited from the first generation, the watch has been refined in its exterior, structure and module for improved watch quality, making it a fitting model for the 35th anniversary.
The metallic G-Shock stands out against the uniform worn by Kazama Kimichika, who is strict about clothing and appearance.
