This timepiece, imbued with universal beauty, will stay close to the heart of its wearer for a long time.
The color of the lacquer art dial is a deep blue created by meticulously adjusting saturation in pursuit of harmony with black lacquer. Skilled artisans apply multiple layers to achieve a serene and profound beauty.
