Posted on by Buy from Japan | Personal Shopper Japan

On March 30, Maserati will set a Japanese special limited car “Nero Infinito” as a hybrid model of the sports sedan “Ghibli” and SUV “Levante”, and will release it only for 24 units each.

“Nero Infinito” is an Italian word meaning “forever black” or “jet black”. The special limited edition car is a model that pursues the charm of “black” that Japanese people have been familiar with since ancient times.

In the exterior design, the C-pillar emblem has been changed to Modena black. In addition, the silver side GT badge and the letters “Maserati” and “Levante / Ghibli” engraved on the rear gate are also coordinated in a special black. At the bottom of the B-pillar, a tricolore stripe that symbolizes “Made in Italy” is placed as an accent. It has a strong presence in contrast to the black body.

Limited cars are set for the new generation mild hybrid models “Ghibli GT” and “Levante GT”. The hybrid system achieves almost the same performance as the V6’s 350ps, such as achieving a maximum output of 330ps while reducing fuel consumption by 18%.

The price is 14.3 million yen for the Ghibli GT Nero Infinite and 15.8 million yen for the Levante GT Nero Infinite. Delivery is scheduled to be around June at the earliest.

ABOUT MICHEL HERBELIN

Michel Herbelin was founded in 1947 in Charquemont, a French town in the Jura Mountains near the Swiss border. In this region where the watch industry is flourishing, the concept of watchmaking, which was advocated by the founder Michel Herbelin, “to make watches that can be used for a long time for all,” has been carefully preserved to this day.
Michel Herbelin’s watches aren’t flashy enough to catch someone’s eyes in an instant. However, it is Michel Herbelin’s identity to pursue universal good design and high quality so that it can be used habitually for a long time, and to incorporate French colors into it.
With 800 stores in France, it has been aggressively expanding into overseas markets since the 1980s, and is now one of the few historic French watch brands with more than 3,000 stores in 50 countries around the world.

“Is” luxury watches a lifelong thing “true?” Short-term intensive serialization ── Vol.04 “The future of after-service” –GQ JAPAN

Posted on by Buy from Japan | Personal Shopper Japan

Changing after-sales service

Many luxury watch brands, including Grand Seiko, do not pay in advance and repair as much as possible, no matter how old the watch is. This attitude of the brand is steadily expanding, and it has spread to casual watches that were previously unrepairable and gave up.

For example, Casio “G-SHOCK” provided a restore service for old models for a limited time from the end of last year to the beginning of the year (the second time following 2018). The resin material that is the exterior of the G-SHOCK may be hydrolyzed and become tattered, and since electronic parts are used, it may not be possible to repair it if the number of years of possession of performance parts for repair is exceeded.

However, G-SHOCK is a brand that has been supported by many fans, and many people love G-SHOCK as a holiday watch even when they grow up. In order not to betray such fans, we provided a restore service to replace the band, bezel, and battery for the initial model centering on the first model “DW-5000C” and the “DW-5600C” that inherited the design. is.

This service was very popular, and it was said that the schedule was exceeded in a blink of an eye. It seems that the service will start in Taiwan in February and may continue in Japan, so it seems better to pull out the G-SHOCK sleeping in the bottom of the drawer by now.

Memories of watches are neither expensive nor cheap. Keeping the clock running as much as possible can be said to be after-sales service that users want. So what does after-sales service do if you decide to let go of your watch for some reason?

Only popular luxury watches, but some models have higher used prices than new ones. Many people buy watches for resale, but this is also an unwelcome situation for watch brands. If purchased through the regular route, after-sales service will be explained and the case and movement can be kept in an appropriate condition. However, watches in the secondary market may not have undergone regular maintenance or overhaul, resulting in poor watch quality.

A limited edition watch with “Platinum Foil”, a collaboration between “Maker’s Watch Knot” and “Hakuichi”, will be on sale from March 25th! ｜ Press release of Hakuichi Co., Ltd.

Posted on by Buy from Japan | Personal Shopper Japan

This time, collaboration between Hakuichi Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture, President: Tatsuya Asano) and Knot Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Musashino City, Tokyo, Representative Director: Hiromitsu Endo) has been realized, and Knot Co., Ltd. As “Premium Automatic Series 2022 Limited Model”, watches with platinum foil are on sale online from March 25, 2022 at Knot’s gallery shops nationwide.

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.

ATC-40SVPT

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.

[What is Maker’s Watch Knot]

We are a pioneer of custom watch brands aiming to provide Japan quality at a reasonable price all over the world by realizing collaboration with world-class technology and traditional crafts and eliminating waste of distribution. In the past, limited models with Aizu lacquer, Koshu Inden, and Hiroshima denim have been released. There are 11 directly managed stores in Japan.

An “independent watchmaker” is the highest-class watchmaker who does not belong to a specific manufacturer and creates original works from scratch with his own ideas and high technology. Works that are manufactured over months or years can be valued at hundreds of millions of yen.

The Swiss-based AHCI “Academy of Independent Watchmakers” has less than 40 members worldwide. Daizo Makihara was the third Japanese to be certified as one of the world’s best watch technicians.

Two types of watches with the motif of “Sakura”, which Mr. Daizo Makihara engraves himself.

The biggest feature of this model is that Mr. Makihara engraved each one.

ARGOLF Japan Co., Ltd. (Representative: Naoki Iwata, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo) has decided to release a full-scale blade type putter carved by cutting-edge precision machining as a limited model in Japan.

ARGOLF (https://argolf.jp/) is an up-and-coming putter maker with a manufacturing plant near the forest in Brittany, France, and its masterpiece is named . Because there is a famous legend of King Arthur that has been handed down in Brita Ninomori, the sword > possessed by King Arthur is a proof of the king and is known as a sword that “has magical power”. The Japanese limited edition is also an image of a sword.

In establishing ARGOLF Japan, it is first necessary to understand the quality and function of ARGOLF putters and the highest level of technology to support them. Therefore, we thought that it would be best to first develop a model limited to Japan as a top grade product and have people understand the goodness of the product.

The Japan-only model is an image of a samurai, and was named after , who is famous as a master craftsman of sword making in the Kamakura period. The sword made by Masamune is a samurai’s sword that has been highly evaluated as a practical sword, but also has a confident putting as a practical putter. It was designed as something that can be done.
“There are only 200 putters in Japan and around the world. We will sell them from 15 ARGOLF dealers who first recognized the goodness of ARGOLF.

A prototype of will be exhibited at the Japan Golf Fair in March, and actual sales are scheduled for mid-April. We believe that Japanese golfers will surely understand the goodness of ARGOLF putters, which are carefully made one by one using the same materials and manufacturing methods, as well as aviation parts that require high reliability such as quality, strength and durability. We are here. I hope that will be the predecessor, “commented Naoki Iwata.
