Small movements that resonate with the heart — “KODOU”

“KODOU” is a classical yet modern automatic watch featuring a small seconds display.
Its name holds two meanings: kodo — the “heartbeat” that marks time, and kodo — the “small, quiet movement” of the small seconds hand.

Blending Japanese tradition with modern craftsmanship, this neo-vintage model features color themes inspired by Kyoto’s four seasons and refined details designed to captivate watch enthusiasts.

The Charm of Mechanical Small Seconds
Powered by a reliable Japanese-made Citizen Miyota automatic movement, the small seconds display sits slightly off-center between 4 and 5 o’clock.
Its asymmetrical placement creates an elegant visual balance, and the gentle, quiet movement embodies the Japanese spirit of wabi-sabi.

The “KODOU” small seconds is designed not just to be owned, but to be enjoyed.

Breguet numeral
The dial features Breguet-style Arabic numerals, a hallmark of classic watch design dating back to the 18th century.
These applied, three-dimensional indexes add depth and refined shadows, elevating the watch’s elegant character.

Volcanic-Texture Dial
The dial surface is finished with a subtle volcanic-like texture that minimizes reflections.
This fine, detailed pattern gives the watch both a luxurious depth and a calm, antique-inspired presence.

Japanese Movement by Citizen Miyota
The use of a high-precision, highly reliable Japanese movement reflects our commitment to creating timepieces you can enjoy for years to come.
In the rare case that servicing is needed, replacement parts are readily available—offering reassurance and dependable after-sales support.

Sapphire Crystal
Sapphire crystal—often used in luxury watches and optical instruments—offers exceptional clarity and outstanding scratch resistance, far exceeding that of mineral glass.

Vintage-Inspired Rice Bracelet
This model features a rice bracelet that pairs beautifully with its classic aesthetic.
Inspired by bracelets from the 1940s to 1960s, the grain-like links create a supple fit and an elegant sparkle, forming soft shadows and rich depth with every movement of the wrist.

One-Push Folding Clasp
The wide-opening, one-push folding clasp makes the watch easy to put on and take off.
Positioned comfortably beneath the wrist, it provides excellent stability and everyday comfort.

A Well-Balanced 38 mm Case
The 38mm case offers a timeless, well-balanced size that suits a wide range of wrists.
Unlike oversized designs common today, it provides excellent comfort while giving the dial a strong, confident presence.

Versatile Design for Both Business and Casual Wear
