As the water of Lake Suwa freezes in the winter, the 'Omiwatari' tradition means this is where the Gods walk over over the ice. The watchmakers at the Shinshu Watch Studio were thus inspired to create a special dial with subtle textures in blue for a hand...  

Only children make choices I want both!

The answer I most expected

I don't suppose you want that too....

A bit girlie, IMO

The Spring Drive movement is incredibly accurate+/- 1 second per day. The Kirazuri method used on the dial of the Genbi Valley translates into "sparkling painting" with the help of dense flora.

but for choice no doubt I would go for the green!

but not easy to find the attire to go with it....

I prefer the ice-blue, textured dial. It's a great color with lovely texture reflecting the Japanese feel that is seen in this rarely occuring ice-formation. While the green too is nice, I will settle for this one!! ...  

Is it the one of the lake? I have never seen it myself...

The unusual ice-formation is considered a rare phenomenon because in Lake Suwa the ice freezes in piles of ice making a line, the on which the gods walk.

Movement, power reserve and no visible screw heads on the back make it easier for me. And though colour is intriguing on right, i think I would tire of it over time. Buts that’s just me. Texture of dial on left clinches it though the case shape a bit too ... 

honestly, I couldn't make up my mind so at the end I took both. Being housed in steel cases, they are relatively affordable

But I prefer the textured dial, as well as the near perfect proportions of 38.5 x 10, so the one on the left . I really don’t think you can go wrong with either 🙂

The watch fits my (relatively small) wrist very well...

The first thing I consider is whether the dial is attractive....
