Welcome to the club!
To me, japan made or not is not the issue.
You must like the watch. That's what matters!

there shouldn't be any difference between "Made in Japan" and "non-Made in Japan", its all up to personal preference.

for me if the price difference isn't great i would usually take the "MIJ" model cos typical Asian mentality = "Made in Japan" should be better QC rite :lol:

no difference

only the area(country) of assembly is difference.

parts are still the same.

only the dial print is different
