Hakuichi and Knot collaboration model
[Background to collaboration]
Knot Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Knot), which provides high-quality MADE IN JAPAN watches, is a pioneer of customized watches. Knot’s philosophy is not just to send out products, but to connect people’s thoughts through manufacturing and convey the splendor of traditional Japanese technology and manufacturing. This feeling is in line with Hakuichi’s commitment to manufacturing, and this collaboration model has been released.
[About the “Premium Automatic Series” 2022 Limited Model]
This time, as a 2022 limited model, two models with beautiful dials with “platinum foil” will be released.

See-through back
A state of sprinkling platinum foil
The dial is the most visible place, but when the decoration becomes gorgeous, the visibility decreases. After repeated trial and error with Knot’s designer who wanted to express the beauty of the material while making it a simple design, “Platinum foil” was finally adopted. By sprinkling “cutting around” platinum foil in the shape of flakes, the overlapping of the foils is expressed as a delicate expression. In addition, the “scattering technique” is adopted for the three-needle type of see-through back where the movement of the movement can be seen. This is a technique that was adopted because of its good compatibility with glass materials, inspired by Guerlain’s perfume bottles and glassware “Stardust”, which have a proven track record in Hakuichi, at the stage of considering samples.
