Other - 2022 Kurono Tokyo White Chronograph II “Shiro”
Description: The Kurono watches have always stayed on our radar. This is an early released chronograph II which sold out in minutes. Description as follows from the Kurono site.
“The chronograph ii white, nicknamed ‘shiro’, is a refined interpretation of the iconic chronograph ii design by hajime asaoka • a longer prototyping period has allowed for numerous improvements across the board • from higher definition printing to greater depth of field from thicker lacquer • from light refraction and concentric guilloche, to parallax overprinting and ‘kyudo’ arrow hands • we hope customers will find pleasure in the exploration of the details put into the construction of the watch
‘simple elements such as the white on the dial is much more than just color – the brilliance of the white was achieved by fine sandblasting of the dial followed by silvering, and with the thick lacquer giving it the appearance of bright white’
