Koji Shinohara, a pioneer of Japanese hand-made watches and a watchmaker who works on the watch brand KS. The "Lost Future" series, which incorporates the world view of steampunk into watches and makes the watch itself look like a machine that is about to start moving, and the "Wadokei" series, which goes well with Japanese clothing as well as everyday use. Based on the concept of "fusion of concepts to be done", a wide variety of handmade watches are produced.

Koji Shinohara was inspired to start producing handmade watches when he met at a small watch factory in Hong Kong. When I was working for a trading company after graduating from university, I went on a business trip to Hong Kong, where I happened to be in charge, and visited a watch assembly factory to sell parts. There, I saw five or six people diligently assembling clocks in a small room. Mr. Shinohara, who thought that making a wristwatch required a large-scale, specialized facility, said that the moment he saw the scene, he felt that wristwatch making was something that he could do himself.

Mr. Shinohara, who had always been a big fan of wristwatches, buying watches every time he traveled overseas, devoted himself to making watches for half a year after meeting him in Hong Kong. At the age of 29, he set up a small watch studio in Kichijoji, Tokyo, and produced original watches using various materials such as paper, brass, and silver. Gradually, he began to attract the attention of media such as magazines and television, and young people aspiring to become watchmakers and apprentices began to visit Mr. Shinohara.

In 1997, JHA (Japan Handcraft-Watch Association) was established to support artists' activities such as learning watchmaking techniques and supplying parts. Even now, while producing his own works, he is also working hard to nurture the next generation. Young people who aspire to become watchmakers love him as a master, and he is active in the development of the world of handcrafted watches.

"Ouginagashi" is now available from the handmade watch brand KS. This is an elegant and old-fashioned wristwatch made with the design theme of Japanese clocks made in Japan, mainly in the Edo period.

Dial design with kanji numbers going around. The dial is simple yet subdued, and the hour hand rotates around a disk shaped like a flower in the center.

With a case diameter of 24mm, this wristwatch has a delicate size and is feminine. The cherry blossom engraved on the belt plate also adds a gorgeous Japanese impression.

The antique-like case is made of brass. The deep color makes the whole watch look mature.
On the side, which has a cool hand-made feeling of rubbing, there is a crown that looks like a flower bud.
