Small movements that touch the heart – "KODOU"

The "KODOU" is a classic yet modern automatic watch with a small seconds sub-dial.
Its name has two meanings: Kodo – the "heartbeat" that measures time, and Kodo – the "small, quiet movement" of the small seconds hand.

This neo-vintage model combines Japanese tradition with modern craftsmanship. The color scheme is inspired by Kyoto's four seasons, and the refined details will delight watch enthusiasts.

The Charm of the Mechanical Small Seconds:
Powered by a reliable Japanese Citizen Miyota automatic movement, the small seconds sub-dial is slightly off-center between 4 and 5 o'clock.
Its asymmetrical arrangement creates an elegant visual balance, and its gentle, quiet movement embodies the Japanese spirit of Wabi-Sabi .

The "KODOU" Small Seconds is not only meant for owning , but also for enjoying .

Breguet Numerals
The dial features Arabic numerals in the Breguet style, a hallmark of classic 18th-century watch design.
These applied, three-dimensional indices add depth and refined shadows that emphasize the watch's elegant character.

Volcanic Texture Dial
The dial surface has a subtle, volcanic-like texture that minimizes reflections.
This fine, detailed pattern gives the watch both luxurious depth and a calm, antique-like presence.

Japanese Movement from Citizen Miyota
The use of a high-precision and extremely reliable Japanese movement reflects our commitment to crafting timepieces that you will enjoy for many years.
Should maintenance be required in rare cases, spare parts are readily available – this provides you with peace of mind and reliable customer service.

Sapphire Crystal
– commonly used in luxury watches and optical instruments – offers exceptional clarity and superior scratch resistance that far surpasses mineral glass.

Vintage-inspired "Beads-of-rice" Stainless Steel Bracelet
This model features a rice bracelet that perfectly complements its classic aesthetic.
Inspired by bracelets from the 1940s to 1960s, the grained links provide smooth wearing comfort and an elegant sparkle. Gentle shadows and fascinating depth are created with every movement of the wrist.

The wide-opening Folding Clasp
with one-push function allows for easy on and off.
It sits comfortably under the wrist and offers excellent hold and high wearing comfort. 

The 38mm Case
impresses with its timeless, harmonious size, which suits many wrists.
