"I've been looking." The fourth time
-How to choose a watch (term and function) ~

Good afternoon.
This is the fourth time, "I've looked at it!"


This time, it is about the "choice of watch (term and function) ~".


And when you pick a clock, you can look at the site, but it's a lot of technical terms. What do you mean by that?

I don't know what's going on here, but I don't know.

For example, the product information includes "There's a Kiz in Bezel".

It is also written as 'Chronograph function'.

It's hard to understand how little information is about the clock.

I thought it would be helpful to me, and I looked into it for a second!
