The Rail Star is one of the fastest train connection in Japan. The 700 series train travels with a speed of 280 km/h from Shin-Osaka to Hakata (one of the wards of Fukuoka). The line is exploited by JR West. It comes in a beautiful box. Outside Japan the High Speed Express Train is often called the "Bullet Train". In Japan these trains are called "Hikaru", which can be translated into beam, light beam, radiance or brilliance. In my country  fast trains (Thalys, Eurostar, TGV) are sometime called "Flash trains", which have a similar meaning. The network of high speed express train connections is called Shinkansen. When the EL Backlight is used ひかり appears in the background. It reads "Hikari". Also check out the great straps. Like you are wearing this train!

Although the watch is based upon the DW-6900FS-8JF,  the official model number is DW-6900BRF-9FS. It comes in a very beautiful packaging. It is a limited edition of 900 watches.
