【Product Features】
● A watch that lets you enjoy the movement itself
Every 37.5 seconds, gold and silver steel balls roll smoothly down the rails and into a bucket. Their weight moves the hands. That's all there is to it in words. But the "Eternal" movement, designed to look beautiful from any angle—to appreciate its movement, which is the essence of a mechanical watch—is something you'll never tire of looking at.
●A Gorgeous Appearance Filled with Light
In addition to its unique mechanism, the "Eternal" movement also boasts a spectacular presentation. The openwork pattern on the lettering circle is an arabesque inspired by the large windows of the Wako Main Building in Ginza, and the top of the base is decorated with gold leaf from Kanazawa, representing a flurry of falling cherry blossom petals. The steel balls are made in two colors, gold and silver, adding to the color scheme.
● Bringing together technology and expertise to revive mankind's first mechanism in modern times
"Yukyu" recreates the mechanism of a water-transported watch stand from the Northern Song Dynasty in China, more than 900 years ago, which is said to be mankind's first escapement mechanism, and has been reconstructed using the latest technology to ensure it can withstand general usage environments, with most parts made in Japan. In addition, assembly and adjustment are carried out meticulously by skilled artisans in our "Clock Workshop," where each clock is carefully assembled and adjusted.
