The reason is like you mentioned, the themes.
I’m not a fan of watches with way too many anniversaries, celebrations and milking the ideas of 4 seasons, nature, mountains, etc
I think sometimes less it more and it will keep its attractive side.
However, consumers are hard to please and we complained a lot, lol…too many choices, too little, this and that.
It’s good we can pick and choose, better than brands choosing us 😊

Just received my Kurono Toki today, 37mm, fun and auspicious color. Do you think the Japanese brands will cause a huge impact to the watch industry like the Quartz crisis? I don’t think so. We now have great choices from Germany, UK, and very strong Indep...
Wow 🤩 These dials look 👀 amazing !

Excellent value for money definitely ! Kurono has great momentum now. You are “clued-in” not“ clueless” 😉
They could be an overflow effect, Gordon…

When we cannot buy the usual suspects, due to lack of inventory, the other tier brands will enjoy the benefits. I’m just a clueless follower 😂
I think you nailed it..

Quartz crisis was a different animal that truly threatened the mechanical industry. Nowadays there are so many options quartz, mechanical, hybrid from different houses. It’s a smorgasbord of choices from different countries. Nice watch BTW.
What a beautiful pair!

Thanks my friend…

This timepiece punches higher than Patek and Lange pieces prices 20 times higher, in my opinion. The case, dial and hands are impeccable.
here are some samples

The dials look simple but are particularly intricate in their realisation. I can't quite judge the movements but I like the casework and their deep artisanal ethos Photo credits: Naoya Hida, Lifestyle Asia and Professionalwatches ...
Thanks for your kind words…

There are now lots of them and you might be able to offer one close to the original retail, I’m also happy with the Chrono 2 and missed the Tiffany blue version…I’m good with his brand for now.
These are both wonderful choices

I'm a little wary of the way Japanese watchmakers market their products to a western market, but once that is ignored what's left are fine watches with strong stylistic characteristics. I like the two you have in the photo and wouldn't say no to either of...

You're be surprised their Marketing team and/or Head may not be Japanese anymore. Diversity and inclusion is the new buzz in business environment. I'm very selective due to limited funds and I have to choose wisely. Thanks for the endorsement for my choic...

This one was purchased online…some says fair and some says not.
By: Clueless_Collector : November 18th, 2021-19:05
It works for me because I don’t have any prior purchase history. On the other hand, the 2 versions SBGW273/277 are sold by ADs and I’m dead sure I won’t stand a chance, without “relationship”. Thank you very much. Enjoy and wear yours in best of health to...
Congrats on the Toki!
