Bennyb,

If you do go to Nakano - quite accessible from Shinjuku Station by the JR line - don't forget to drop by Jackroad - lots of vintage rolexes there. Also some Pams, and Panerai there.:thumbsup:

WAH! That's same station as fujiya... you can plan ONE full day at Nakano, ONE full day at Shinjuku, ONE full day at Ginza.... that's enough to keep you busy for a few days...

And you can always get a few A&A bags to bring back those Leica gears if you run out of suit cases....

Most Yodobashi Cameras have supermarket style film fridge. Yodobashi Akihabara & Yodobashi Shinjuku should be hard to miss...

Sorry to dig out old thread....

Am at tokyo now. Just saw that isetan sells leica too and I saw a 50mm summilux. Abt 399k jpy. I know its in premium but just wonder its worth to get since its rare.

However I prefer silver and I saw from robert white UK website stating they have silver available and its much cheaper.

Anyone has experience with robertwhite?

What shd I do... Going back soon..

Thanks

There are a few other shops that have the chrome Leica Summilux-M 50mm f/1.4 ASPH. Saw it but I didn't take note of the prices when I was walking around Tokyo for the past 9 days.

If you get from Isetan, you can get 5% off if you bring your passport. And no extra % for using credit cards. Lastly, you have to add shipping and 7% GST on Robert's prices.

Cheers,
