Minase Watches
I just learned about this watch company and have no idea why it took so long. Minase makes fewer than 500 pieces a year and uses artisanal techniques like zaratsu polishing and urushi lacquer dial-making. Their dials are hammered into a dome for added depth and the cases are angular, industrial, and masculine. Bonus for @Omeganut, the movements are based on chronometer grade ETA 2824s.

Would love to see one in person!
I have been looking at MinaseWatches for a few years, problem is they don't have any service centers in the US, and there was no real way to buy these watches in the US.
