seiko & staba card

I asked for a souvenir from Dai when I heard that he was
going to Hawaii. I asked for the refillable money card for
Starbucks coffee. (we call them "Staba" in JDM language)
I have my own Hawaii Staba card, but it's getting pretty old
and scratched up from years of use.
And talking about scratches, my Seiko watch is pretty scratched up.
Recently, I'm more careful about this watch because one of
the pin to hold the band was almost falling off.
Thanks to my friend who let me know just in time
before it fell off.

This is the back of the Seiko. It's powered by Kinetic technology,
where every arm movement moves the pendulum inside to
continuously charge the power to keep the watch working.

I've had this watch for more than 3 years now, and the Kinetic
has been around many years before then, so it's a pretty old
technology now....., but I still think it's pretty cool !!
