Would you like to have a beautiful woman tell you what time it is every time you look at the clock?
At least one Japanese thought it was a neat idea and made "bijin-tokei".
"Bijin" means beautiful lady and "Tokei" means clock in Japanese.
Basically "bijin-tokei" is a clock application made of 1,440 beautiful women.
All women are normal girls (no professional models or actors) who were asked for a street snap in Tokyo.
Once you download the application to your computer or cell phone / iphone, beautiful women are reloaded every minute, holding up a little blackboard where they wrote the time in their own unique design. Most of these girls were caught shopping in Shibuya and Harajuku, so you can also check out the latest fashion trend from the pictures.
"bijin-tokei" had so many access, a guy version, "binan-tokei"shooting beautiful men was created.
I think bijin-tokei was successful because the girls are just normal girls who are not professional models. They are like a girl living next door or the pretty girl who goes to the same school but not too different from the viewers like a super idol.
The company decided to take it global and now it has a Paris version, and Korean version. They are also planning to have a Taiwan and Hong Kong girl version too.
Don't forget that all girls fade out in a minute. So even if you find a favorite girl, you will have to wait another 24 hours to take a look at her again.
That is when you should download (free) and save the picture on your phone or computer.

We have made a new category for books.
You may notice that we are listing magazines in this category
which may be confusing because we already have a magazine category.
Magazines listed in the "Book" category can be purchased from a single issue
while a minimum of 3-month subscription is required for items listed in the magazine section.
I'm sure this is good news to quite a lot of CDJapan users because we
had a lot of requests asking to sell magazines from single issues.
My first recommendation is NINAGAWA WOMAN. Ninagawa is a popular photographer famous for using very bright colors in her pictures. I also have the impression of her using a lot of flowers in her backgrounds. This is an all-woman photo book featuring famous celebrities like Namie Amuro, Saki Aibu, and many other models.
Next would be Nozomi Sasaki's photo book,Non.
In this book, Nozomi will show all her secrets from her private clothes, room wear, beauty secrets and even semi-nude shots.
Lastly I am sure there will be a lot fans wanting Jin Akanishi in LANDS BANDAGE Official Book. This book was pre-released for Jin's first starring role movie "BANDAGE". The book features solo interview of the casts, interview of producer Iwai and Takeshi Kobayashi, and other behind the scene trivia.
We will be adding more and more items to this section so don't forget to
check this newly added page from time to time!!
