Still today, Kakiiro remains a Kabuki favorite. The Kakiiro dial exhibits a color gradation that creates a unique sharpness and depth. The dial edge is a darker shade so that the gold color hands and indexes stand out clearly. The watches are offered with a leather strap whose back is also Kakiiro. This is a subtle nod to the Edo period when it was forbidden to wear vivid colors in public and so they were only used on the reverse side of garments. The dials incorporate the Japanese hemp leaf pattern known as Asanoha, which has been used in the fabrics of Kabuki costumes for centuries. Partly thanks to the popularity and influence of Kabuki actors, the Asanoha pattern has long been highly favored in Japanese fashion and design. The see-through case back of the watch is marked with the words “Limited Edition” and the serial number, and it also allows the wearer to view the automatic mechanical movement working. The watch is offered in a special box which is gold and black in color Case Dimensions: Thickness: 13.7mm Diameter: 40.2mm Length: 47.37mm
