I look forward to seeing you in the Year of the Tiger.
A new year has begun. A friend tiger came to RIEdel's "Ginza 4-chome Zoo". The Wako show window at the 4-chome intersection, more than usual, people passing by stop and watch. This year, Mizuno Etora. The Earthly Branches and the Chinese zodiac sign have their own meaning, not only in numbers and directions, but also in the sense of "flaming" and "born" and the tiger has the meaning of "standing in front of people", "prolonging and growing". The combination of these two, Mitora, represents the good luck of "starting up anew" and "growing born".
Ginza's symbol "Wako Main Building" is said to be renovated from now on, and the rooftop with the clock tower is "Sky Garden" and on the 7th floor there is a workshop where you can see craftsmanship such as watches. After the renovation, the name will change from Wako Main Building to "SEIKO HOUSE GINZA", and is scheduled for June this year.
As one of the fans, I would like to keep watching the appearance of "Wako", which has been used for many years, rising and changing like Mitora.
