Limited to just a few hundred pieces, the Chronograph 1 MK.2 is a highly sought-after, yet attainable timepiece, featuring vintage, heritage-rich design elements, and subtle watchmaking feats.
Hajime Asaoka, an independent watchmaker that produces very high-end watches by hand, established Kurono Tokoyo as a more accessible brand, showcasing his design vision and utilizing Japanese movements from Seiko. By fitting the substantial and robust NE86 movement in a thin 38mm case, he was able to evoke a vintage theme with features like a plexiglass-like sapphire box crystal, dial-present tachymeter and pulsameter, and logo-less crown and clasp, to name a few.
This robust, tactile, and practical timepiece provides a fantastic amount of horological value for the investment, and it is deserving of a spot in any man's collection.

Overall: Excellent, pre-owned condition. It is absolutely stunning on the wrist!
The steel surfaces show absolute minimal, superficial wear.
The dial and crystal are clean.
