Commentary: Beautiful Person
This watch was designed with the image of a mature and sophisticated woman who embodies a sense of beauty, while also evoking the presence of important others such as partners and family. The theme is 'Beautiful Person.' The new Sakura Pink color of Duratect, which helps maintain the watch's beautiful appearance, perfectly expresses a presence that combines both strength and beauty. The dial layout is based on a dignified atmosphere, with Roman numerals neatly lined up like those on a clock tower. At the same time, by curling the ends of the numerals and arranging a string of metal parts around the outer edge of the dial, a touch of sweetness and brilliance is added to achieve a well-balanced design.

Gentle Details

This model is the first in Japan to use Duratect Sakura Pink, aiming to express the mature and elegant atmosphere of this color. With a new design approach centered on Sakura Pink—a color that suits Japanese skin tones and exudes a subtle yet dignified expression—this model offers a fresh appeal distinct from previous best-sellers in the domestic market. Overall, the design is calm and understated, but the new, never-before-seen color and its elegance invite you to pick it up. The dial is easy to read, with black Roman numerals and hands. By limiting the visible colors, Sakura Pink stands out, giving the watch a simple impression and a dignified individuality. At first glance, the Roman numeral font appears linear, but subtle curves in the details create contrast and express a feminine strength. Additionally, the milgrain detail on the indicator ring softly connects the Sakura Pink case and the dial, creating an elegant sense of unity. The design gently asserts itself without being overbearing, and its careful attention to detail makes it a piece you will grow to love over time.
