Why We Love it
–What if you could combine the best in vintage vibe with modern tech for the perfect everyday watch? Well, now you can.
Japanese independent Kurono Tokyo is the brainchild of watchmaker Hajime Asaoka. Under the mandate of bringing Asaoka’s design sensibility to the masses using assembly line manufacturing — rather than the handmade haute horlogerie pieces for which he is primarily known — the company is able to offer beautiful watches for several thousand dollars, rather than tens of thousands.
This particular watch, the Hajime Asaoka Seiji, features a 37mm stainless steel case, an unsigned crown, a sapphire crystal, a baby blue dial with applied radial accents and quadrant indices, a matching syringe handset, and the Miyota Calibre 90S5 automatic movement. Fitted to a white calf leather strap with a steel pin buckle, it comes with all its goodies, including its warranty card.
In as-new condition showing only faint handling wear, this Hajime Asaoka Seiji combines one of the most popular colorways of the year with a perfectly sized case in a limited run of just 400 pieces.
It’s far and away one of the coolest modern watches of the last few years!
Brand Story
+
Brand Story
+Kurono Tokyo offers beautiful, vintage-inspired watches in highly wearable sizes for a few thousand dollars, rather than tens of thousands. Often available in striking colorways, they feature faces made by one of Japan’s finest dial markers, stainless steel cases and solid case backs, and robust Miyota movements.
Unabashedly Japanese in their attention to detail and craftsmanship but borrowing from midcentury European watchmaking design language, Kurono Tokyo timepieces are a cut above the average “microbrand” watch, yet still wildly affordable compared to the wares from many high-end independents.
