Watanabe Kobo Handmade Wristwatch Manual Winding Type Back Skeleton Roman Numerals 36mm [NW-BHW058B]
Mr. Masaaki Watanabe of Watanabe Koubou is a watchmaker who makes watches one by one by hand at his workshop in downtown Tokyo. We have worked on many watch works that are full of warmth and a tasteful expression unique to handmade. Mr. Watanabe does everything by hand, from making watch parts such as cases, dials, and belts to assembling them. There is a wide variety of products, from simple designs that can be used for both casual and business purposes, to unique models that incorporate originality and ingenuity. Watches created through a very time-consuming process give warmth and healing that ready-made products do not have. For the material of the case, we use materials such as brass and silver that can be enjoyed over time. The leather belt is made of genuine leather that is thick yet fits well, giving it a sense of quality and presence. With the flow of time, you will grow attached to it - it is overflowing with such warmth. Since each item is made by hand, it takes about 3 weeks to 1 month from the time of order, but you can also choose the color of the belt. It's a very rare and warm handmade wristwatch, so I'm sure it will be appreciated even if it is given as a gift! |

The diameter of the dial is about 36 mm, which is a large model with a strong presence. A handmade watch with an impressive donut-shaped plate engraved with Roman numerals. The back of the case is a skeleton specification, so you can enjoy the movement of the movement that ticks the time from both the front and back of the watch. Rounded numbers are welded on the dial, and the brass with an antique finish gives it a unique atmosphere of a handmade watch. The needle is a fluorescent type and has excellent visibility. |

Cowhide with good texture is used for the material of the belt. It is much more durable than the leather straps of common wristwatches, and it also has a high quality. I think there are very few mass-produced watches in the same price range that use leather belts with such quality and presence. Skeleton specifications that you can enjoy the movement of the self-winding movement. The back cover is also a skeleton specification, so you can enjoy the movement even if you turn it inside out. |
You can choose the color of the belt! |
The belt is available in eight colors: black, brown, camel, tanned, white, red, khaki, and navy. Choose your favorite color belt and make it your one and only wristwatch in the world♪ |

A handmade watch with an impressive donut-shaped plate engraved with Roman numerals. The back of the case is a skeleton specification, so you can enjoy the movement of the movement that ticks the time from both the front and back of the watch. Rounded numbers are welded on the dial, and the brass with an antique finish gives it a unique atmosphere of a handmade watch. The needle is a fluorescent type and has excellent visibility. Skeleton specifications that you can enjoy the movement of the self-winding movement. The back cover is also a skeleton specification, so you can enjoy the movement even if you turn it inside out. The brass case is new, but it has an aged texture. It has a vintage-like calm atmosphere, and the mature, antique-style (retro, classic, medieval) design is attractive. The more you use the brass case, the more it will age, so you can enjoy the change in texture. The eye-catching mechanical design is perfect for coordinating accents! The material used for the belt is high-quality, glossy Italian cowhide (cowhide/genuine leather). It is much more durable than the leather straps of common wristwatches, and it also has a high quality. I think there are very few mass-produced watches in the same price range that use leather belts with such quality and presence. A thick, approximately 21 cm wide belt and a large (big face) round case are perfectly balanced! Choose from 8 colors for the belt: black, brown, camel, beige, white, red, khaki, and navy. You can fly. It is a size that can be worn by both men and women without discomfort. Not only can it be matched with a simple style, but it also has a strong presence even in a quirky style. Because it is almost entirely made-to-order and hand-made, it takes time from order to delivery, but it is well worth it. Not only for those in their teens, 20s, and 30s, but also for those in their 40s and 50s. It is a size that can be used by men and women (for men, women, and unisex). Not only for yourself, but also for birthdays, Christmas (Xmas), Valentine's Day, White Day, Mother's Day, as a matching pair watch, it is also recommended as a gift / present for birthdays. If you would like wrapping, please let us know in the remarks column (free entry column) when ordering. |
