Good morning watch fam! Today I am wearing a watch from a Japanese microbrand called Knot. This is their Urushi model. It is handcrafted by Nobuichi Otake, a traditional Urushi lacquer artisan. The case is made by the renowned Hayashi Seiki Seizo company which is known for their work on the Grand Seiko cases and for their Zaratsu polishing and hairline finishing. This watch is an excellent example of Japanese watchmaking and craftsmanship. Happy humpday everyone!
If interested you can see a beautiful video with Nobuichi Otake working on the dial and applying the Urushi lacquer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHhfN3b7dwA

They aren’t so known outside Japan but I think more and more people are discovering them in US and Europe. I have seen a couple of people here in WC posting shots of their Knot watches!
Same to you my friend 🤝
