Description:
Marco Calvo always knew his grandfather, affectionately called Papoo, was a good man. After all, he was named for him. A first-generation Jewish immigrant, Papoo was hardworking, smart, and caring. When Papoo peacefully passes away, Marco expected the funeral to be simple. However, he is caught off guard by something unusual. Among his close family and friends are mourners he doesn't recognize-Japanese- American families-and no one is quite sure who they are or why they are at the service. How did these strangers know his grandfather so well?
Set in the multicultural Central District of Seattle during World War II and inspired by author Josh Tuininga's family experiences, We Are Not Strangers explores a unique situation of Japanese and Jewish Americans living side by side in a country at war. Following Marco's grandfather's perspective, we learn of his life as a Sephardic Jewish immigrant living in America and his struggles as he settles into an America gearing up its war efforts. Despite the war raging just outside US borders, Papoo befriends Sam Akiyama, a Japanese man who finds his world upended from President Roosevelt's Executive Order 9066. Determined to keep Sam's business afloat while he and his family are unjustly imprisoned, he and Papoo create a plan that will change the Akiyama's lives forever.
An evocative and beautifully illustrated historical fiction graphic novel revealing the truth of one man's extraordinary efforts, We Are Not Strangers converges two perspectives into a single portrait of a community's struggle with race, responsibility, and what it truly means to be an American.

Beautiful Watch, But It Doesn't Work and Customer Support is Non-Existent
Color: Sliver Band Blue Face-5009, Color: Sliver Band Blue Face-5009
Update:
However, after two weeks I noticed the watch would stop working. I would reset the time and it would work for a day or two and stop again. It happened several times. I tried contacting the seller through Amazon twice but they never replied. The phone number listed by Amazon's Contact the Seller doesn't work. I tried calling it twice and all I got was a message saying that my call could not be connected. I contacted Amazon and they authorized a return and now I'm going to have to find a different watch from a different Amazon seller. I'm extremely disappointed because I really loved this watch!
I can not in good conscience ever recommend this brand of watches so I changed my review form a 5 star to a 1 star.
Previous review:
The model I purchased is the OLEVS Stainless Steel Quartz Movement model # 5009G with the blue face.
I chose this watch because I have a 9" wrist and this particular model came with a 9.05" band and it fits perfectly! It opens just big enough to slip over my XXL hand the band is just loose enough to have the slightest shift back and forth when closed so it is quite comfortable to wear.
The watch is truly beautiful, and light weight. I can't believe how low the price was!
My eyesight is not the best so I don't need a fancy watch with three different dials on the face (truthfully I didn't really need the date on this watch since I can't read it without glasses) but I can glance down at the watch and tell the time, and that's all I need.
The watch came with the band extended to its longest length, but a tool was included to adjust the band to a smaller size if needed. This manufacturer has many, beautiful watches to choose from! But be careful if band length is a special concern for you. Make certain when you select the color and design you want to scroll down to "Looking for specific info" and ask what the band length is. I found it can vary between the different watches shown on the order page you're viewing. Some watches will have a band length listed in millimeters and others in inches, so you may need to do some conversions.
The watch looks very similar to a Citizen watch I've been wearing for at least 15 years (probably closer to 20). The Citizen had been eating $5 batteries every two months for years, and it still lost time like crazy. I finally decided enough was enough and started looking for a nice watch.
This is for everyday, and formal wear.
