Kurono GMT 1 KUR-GMT1

KURONO TOKYO GMT 1

Founded in 2019 as a means for legendary Japanese watchmaker Hajime Asaoka to create serial production pieces, Kurono Tokyo stands as one of the most exciting microbrands in today's watchmaking industry. With his reputation as an exceptional watchmaker secured from decades of recognition, Hajime Asaoka was famed for designing once-off timepieces in close collaboration with his clients. However, with demand growing fast, he decided to launch his own microbrand and create timepieces that would cater to those that wanted affordable watches that feature his stunning design language at a fraction of the cost. Launched in 2023, the GMT 1 that we have here was Kurono’s first world timer watch, boasting the brand’s famed art-deco-inspired design language. Featuring a 38mm stainless steel case and a two-tone black and red dial, the GMT 1 is a wonderfully sleek modern timepiece that pays homage to what came before it. With a steel bezel that uses engravings to differentiate its AM and PM sections, the GMT 1 is intelligently designed and sleek on the wrist.
