Kurono Tokyo Seiji

For those unaware of Kurono Tokyo, it is the sub-brand of renowned independent watchmaker Hajime Asaoka, whom is widely regarded as one of the top watchmakers in the world. His watches are produced in extremely limited numbers, each an individual commission that can take years to deliver. In order to allow some of his magic to be enjoyed by the wider public, he created the Kurono Tokyo brand. These watches are designed by Hajime-san, but utilise components created to his specification from external manufacturers. Each watch then passes through his hands to ensure the quality is worthy of his name.

Thought released at very accessible price points, they have amassed a huge following within the independent watch community and each release sells out in under 5 minutes. This has led to extremely high demand on the secondary market, and it seems everyone wants in on the Kurono action.

When you take a closer look at this Seiji, it’s not hard to see why. Released as a limited run of 500 pieces, it features the usual stainless 37mm, but houses a gorgeous blue-green lacquer dial finish that looks spectacular in person. It is powered by the usual 90S5 high-grade Miyota movement, and is assembled in Japan by hand.

This particular piece was delivered in February 2022 and remains brand new and unworn. Was removed from the package for photos, and to confirm condition.

Comes with outer sleeve, inner box, instruction manual, warranty card dated Feb 2022, Kurono booklet, Kurono cleaning cloth, Watch Vault cleaning cloth, Kurono Saki cup, and Kurono decorative cloth.
