Run by the ocean in the AM, then a long day at work. Big coffee and Mori to see me through it. Almost thru the week guys, will try for beer toast tomorrow night!
Jealous. I’ve been eyeballing them on eBay. But worried I’ll get a fake 🤕
Thank you 🙏😊
yikes- I’ve never heard of fake Kurono, but possible I guess??
I don’t think they couldn’t fake the urushi dial however…
it’s hand polished (well, thumb polished) by an artist for days. The artist must practice the craft for years to perfect, and get the skin tolerance for urushi sap.
it reflects light like no other watch I own, and has a ‘depth’ to the color.
I think no Urushi studios in a Chinese copying factory
I believe EBay warranties against fakes as well. And any seller would have all the extra stuff from Kurono, so that will help prove it (seller should have the extra goodies with the watch!)

This must be dazzling dial Thursday! Yours is about the tenth incredible dial watch I’ve seen today.
Beautiful 👌. Both the watch and Vancouver.
Man I want to add one of these to my Kurono collection so bad

Thanks so much Robert! I should peruse today’s watches to see what else is out there!

Bit of a sunny wintery sky today, so good for a run and a quick watch pic outside! Thanks!

Keep an eye out for new releases and used market - they regularly come up! 👍
Gorgeous dial.
& That strap is amazing too
I’ve been dying to see/try one of these in person. They seem to be sooo cool.

Thanks Pete!
Strap was chosen specifically to go with this watch - from a studio in Kyoto quite close to wear they make the dial 🙂

It’ll be tough - best bet is at a watch meet up most likely? I always bring mine to watch meet ups.
Other option: the little visiting office Kurono has in Aoyama Tokyo!
Gorgeous green dial 👌🏻💚

Beautiful watch and scenery (envying both 😅). Looks like Hiroshige strap. What is it?
Coffee yes! Run 🏃🏾…uhhh run?… 🤪 that’s all you brother! Good morning and lovely green dial color way you got there Alan!

Well, I could use a little traveling to Tokyo, however, my bank account begs to differ... 🤣🤣

Bingo!
Hiroshige Tsugi - or ‘scar’ has a suture line running sideways across it, Inden deer leather and regular leather
Same idea as kintsugi - finding beauty in imperfection
What a vivid striking green!! A real beauty
