Happily-surprised that this arrived within the promised delivery timeline. Wasn’t confident it would, with the reported thousands of TOKIs that were ordered, and the pandemic etc etc
The initial impressions are of an extremely well-finished piece. I’m not one to post unboxing photos, but the box and accompanying accessories are very impressive and artistic. This is my first non-mass-produced Japanese watch.
Thanks for looking

Mabrook! This special dial color (not really salmon) looks great on you.
And I agree about their packaging…it’s the little personal touches and attention to detail that stands out.
Actually…
my wife really liked this dial color when she saw it and said this is one she could imagine wearing sometimes (but the strap would have to change). She’s never said that about any others of mine.
Huge Congrats. Excellent Kurono.
Such a beautiful dial color .wear it in best of health
I can imagine your joy unpacking it.
Everything gorgeous and neat. Japanese craft is something special. Congratulations.
Closed caseback. Which leaves it 7mm thin.
‘Svelte’ is the word that comes to mind. It’s Miyota inside, so I doubt that it is worthy of a display caseback
Next year? How come?
There’s still 4 months in 2021. Even if you were in the latest batch, you’ll probably be happily surprised. Sounds like they are ramping up deliveries Thanks for the compliment 😁
I got a light gray perlon strap for it and there are a few other options that I’m contemplating.
The case size, lug length and dial color make the opportunities endless
Thanks. Means a lot, coming from you. I’d like for one of you macro gurus to put the dial, case, and hands to the test.
I’d like to see how well-finished it is.
I checked my eggshell
The work is not so clean as I spot several debris on the dial and hands. But I don’t expect much for its price point either
Nice. Have you published these findings on prior posts?
It would be interesting to see if the quality was better with the original (more limited runs) or with this larger TOKI run (albeit after several years of better cash-flow and maybe better QC)
There's a beautiful watch, Hussam, and
the dial color complements your skin tone nicely. Congratulations! Cheers Marc
Cheers Marc. I tend to shy away from the classical yellow-toned ‘salmon’ because I don’t find it to suit my darker complexion.
This pinkish hue suits me slightly better…but my wife isn’t impressed with my ‘pink’ watch 😳 Have a good one
I sympathize. Soon after my future wife
moved in, my beloved pink denim jacket was out of favor and soon gone for good. (That was in my late 20's. I didn't know better. She did.) Cheers Marc
Congrats!
I love the Kuronos. Lots of value at the price point, and slim and so wearable on the wrist. The Toki looks lovely, definitely a keeper
