Small movements 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.

 Premium Genuine Leather Strap
The strap is crafted from high-quality cowhide leather with an elegant crocodile-embossed finish.
It offers a refined shine and will develop a beautiful patina over time.

 Practical High-Quality D-Buckle
The double-fold D-buckle adds a premium touch.
Commonly seen on high-end leather straps, it reduces wear and tear, improves durability, and prevents accidental drops when putting the watch on or taking it off.


 38mm Case Size
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
.

 A Design for Both Business and Casual Wear
With its clean and versatile styling, KODOU transitions seamlessly between business and casual settings.
The timeless dial complements any outfit and offers a sophisticated wrist presence you can enjoy for years to come

Care & Maintenance

To keep your watch performing at its best, we recommend avoiding strong impacts, extreme temperatures, and prolonged exposure to moisture unless your watch is designed for water activities. After exposure to salt water, rinse the watch gently with fresh water and dry with a soft cloth.

For mechanical watches, regular wear helps keep the movement running smoothly. If the watch is not worn often, manual winding may be needed depending on the model. Quartz watches may require battery replacement over time.

Leather straps should be kept away from excessive water and humidity to preserve their appearance and longevity.

Because care recommendations can vary by brand and model, please refer to the manufacturer manual included with your watch for detailed operating instructions, water resistance guidelines, and service intervals.
