Kurono Tokyo Reserve de Marche (“Sensu N.O.S.”)
Look Ma, no date ! LOL, for the purists out there this is big decision. And the dials here most definitely have not be ruined by the inclusion of a date window.
Anyways, I stopped the Kurono Boutique in Aoyama earlier to see these watches. And so for anyone that might be interested here are some hands-on pictures of these new watches.
These watches are releasing later this week in two dial variants, I can’t recall the numbers for each series, in the hundreds I believe.
The blue dial was particularly captivating in person. I don’t believe the online photos or my photos for that matter capture it correctly.
It may be a tad lighter than what my pictures show, and it does not remind me of any other blue dial I’ve seen before. For what it’s worth, I was told Asaoka mixes his own colours when prototyping dials.
Also, the kanji markers and the fact that the brand name is less prominent make this one my choice (if I was making a choice). I also like on both dials how the power reserve and the 24hr sub dial are both somewhat deep recesses, it adds something to the overall attractiveness of the watch.
38mm case and a little over 11mm tall (sapphire included). It’s a nice size.
Good luck to anyone that’s going to try to nab one online later in the week.
A comparison shot more for colour as folks generally know what the OP Tiffany looks like.

We would be a good pair then, with contrasting choices.
That was my impression too.
Thanks for sharing
It really was very nice in person.
Good looking watch.
😂
Thanks a lot for sharing, it is nice to see them in the flesh before they go on for sale. Usually Asaoka does not communicate on the exact numbers, but yes it is usually in the 100s.
The staff did indicate rough numbers…
Blue for me too.
I think so too.
Great pics, thanks for posting!
Good size, although lugs are a little longer so it maybe wears a tad bigger.
