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. |
The mechanical movement is likened to the "heart of the watch", so it's a warm name. |

Handmade wristwatches made by Mr. Masaaki Watanabe of Watanabe Koubou, a watchmaker who makes watches by hand one by one. Everything is done by hand, from production of watch parts such as cases, dials, and belts to assembly. 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. A self-winding mechanical wristwatch with a good naming that makes the watch feel like it has a heart, named “Open Heart”. Except for the part of the machine that can be seen through the small window, it has a clean and cool impression. That's why I feel that the small window that casually opens at 8 o'clock looks lovely. The hand-wound type winds the mainspring by turning the crown manually. In self-winding, the crescent-shaped part called the rotor of the movement rotates when worn or when the watch is shaken, and the mainspring is wound. You can feel the time while enjoying the expression of brass with a rich texture. What time is it? …When you look at the watch, you can see how the watch changes its expression each time, and you can enjoy the leisurely flow of time together with the watch. Not only for yourself, but also recommended as a gift for birthdays, Christmas, Valentine's Day, White Day, birthdays, etc. If you would like wrapping, please let us know in the remarks column (free entry column) when ordering. |
