OUTLINE 2-Register Chronograph Series IV “Reverse Panda”

OUTLINE | Kikuchi | - Watches with character, created by one of Japan's most influential watch experts, Yoshimasa Kikuchi

Behind OUTLINE is none other than Yoshimasa Kikuchi – publisher of Japan's leading watch magazines such as... Power Watch , LowBEAT and Time Gear . For decades, he accompanied, tested, and described the world of watches – until he decided to realize his vision himself. With OUTLINE, he creates watches that breathe the spirit of the 1940s to 1970s: a tribute to the golden age of mechanical watches, stylishly interpreted for today.

The name says it all – OUTLINE stands for clear lines, timeless style and what makes a watch: character, history and quality.

OUTLINE 2-Register Chronograph Series IV “Reverse Panda”

The motorsport era of the 1970s, reimagined for the wrist: The OUTLINE Series IV “Reverse Panda” pays homage to the great racing chronographs of that time – with its iconic reverse panda dial, domed acrylic crystal, and flat bezel. A compact 38 mm (39 mm including bezel), polished sides, and a 316L stainless steel case ensure the perfect balance of vintage charm and modern everyday wearability. The look deliberately evokes chronograph legends like the Heuer Autavia – authentic, but without retro baggage.
