Here’s a recent automatic model from the Riki Watanabe Collection. This model is very similar to the quartz models that were released a while ago. There are three colour variants namely white (AKPA401, AKPA404), black (AKPA402) and the cream colour model (AKPA403) feature here. It is also my favourite among the three.
Here’s a quick photo review.
Dial
Side
Caseback
Leather strap
Diameter: 39.5mm excluding crown
Thickness: 11.5mm
Lug Width: 18mm
Water resistance: 10 bar
I see more ladies wearing the previous model (AAAA101) than guys and I suspect this model will become popular with the ladies as well.
Other colour variants can be found in this post:

Hi Thomas,
Thank you for a great update (as usual) on the new and interesting watches from Japan. Compared to the previous Riki W collection like AAAA101, does this new AKPA403 have domed crystal (‘crystal with legs’)?
Thanks.
