With pleasure.

Its the Kuon, or as some people call in the baby "EICHI 2". I have not seen one in the wild either tbh. To be fair, Credor is not sold officially in switzerland. I think closest would be Paris or London. I was able to try the Eichi 2 in London and its a dream piece, but somewhat over my budget at the moment and this is where Kuon comes in, with its price of roughly 7.4k chf. And its shares some technical aspects with the Eichi and not only the look (white porcelain dial, blued hands, indices, etc...). Both are manual wound spring drive movements. EinPa mentioned the "value for money" aspect. This thing is unbeatable imho. It comes very close to Eich for a fracrion of the price. Tbh, eichi for me is also a bit too elegant with its only strap solution, while Kuon can also be worn with a suit, as its quite thin and rather small with its size of 39mm.



Eichi, as seen in London boutique last year.


By now there are four iterations. I will post a screeshot below. You will see those.in the japanese site only if not mistaken.
