Excerpt from Kurono Tokyo website:
For the Chronograph 2, Hajime chose the mechanical chronograph caliber NE86A from one of Japan's most esteemed movement manufacturers - positioned by them as its newest flagship chronograph movement and successor to the 6S.
Touted by the manufacturer as a premium caliber, the 311-part movement combines traditional chronograph features like a column wheel, vertical clutch, and a magic lever winding system - with a unique three-pointed hammer system that starts, stops and resets all three wheels simultaneously. This system allows for all the counters to advance continuously rather than only at one-minute intervals.
Additionally, instead of driving the minute and hour counters from the chronograph seconds wheel, each is driven by a powered wheel with its own clutch. This delivers increased accuracy and longer-term durability.

I love the colors of the dial. Even the date doesn't bother me. Thanks for the photos. M4
I got that email from them

stating when they'll start taking orders. Looks great and is very tempting but I'm not so sure about the legibility of a 38mm chrono.
Good point but ...

It’s worked in the past for Patek Philippe amongst others.
Yes

and for others as well. But I am not so sure if they were used as one would use a chrono. The Heuers while even smaller at 36 have higher contrast dials as far as I recall. Not that it really matters; it has been a long time since I've used a chronograph ...
True

with a high contrast dial it could work. But then again, I'm not sure it really matters as we just don't use wrist worn chronos for precise measurements anymore.
Good luck 🤞
