Call me an enabler, but I thought I'd post some translations to help when searching. These are just what came to mind. Let me know if you need help with anything more.

I used Buyee in the past, never had a problem. Their prices have gone up a bit recently, so I now use fromjapan.co.jp - a bit more hassle, as they require you to add funds before bidding. It's only charged to the card when you actually use these funds, so it's okay, I guess. Just a bit more work.

Call me an enabler, but I thought I'd post some translations to help when searching. These are just what came to mind. Let me know if you need help with anything more. アルピニスト Alpinist ベルマチック Bellmatic 尾錠 Buckle ビジネス Business クロノグラフ Chronograph クロノメーター Chronometer シチズン Citizen クリストロン Crystron デッド Dead.

drakehound Would you mind sharing the wording for "Grand Quartz" and "King Quartz"? Thanks! I would guess: グランドクオーツ (gu-ra-n-do ku-ō-tsu) キングクオーツ (ki-n-gu ku-ō-tsu) You can basically just connect different words together listed in the first post to form the word you are after (don't use spaces in between). Most of the words listed have been created in the 20th century or have the connotation towards a modern and/or western meaning (thus written in katakana) and I would also guess that therefore they don't have too many grammatical rules applied to them what you would see in more established words and readings. This is a generalisation on the topic and exceptions exist such as kanji 石, stone (possible readings: いし i-shi, せき se-ki)
