We have released original models that utilize cutting-edge technology and
craftsmanship, and have received high praise. Based on the design concept of the “beauty of space” that confines the infinite universe in a small space blocked by glass, it has a multilayered structure that combines parts such as a circle-shaped trivet ring, and is three-dimensional like a building. It features a design that creates an expressive look. ▼Product overview The three models that will be released this time are based on the theme of “Sky Mirror” and are inspired by a Heian period poem in which people look at the starry sky reflected in the water held in their hands and think about the lives of people in the encounter of the stars. Expressing lyricism like a beautiful painting. Each model features a different lacquer dial. 〈“Sora Kagami” Limited Model Mechanical〉 The feeling that starry skies are beautiful has not changed 1000 years ago and even now. The “Sora Kagami” mechanical collection expresses this universal romance. The dial, which looks like a painting and invites you to the depths of space, was created by Tetsuo Gido, a traditional craftsman of Aizu lacquer. At its heart is a mechanical movement manufactured by La Joux-Perret SA. Swiss and Japanese craftsmanship come together in a single form that reflects the sky on your wrist.
