Inspired by the beauty of ‘Ruri-Numa’ (瑠璃沼), it blends a lapis-green metallic periphery with a deep black mirrored center across a single cylindrical dial. Because of manufacturing complexity, Reiwa was introduced only one other time 5 years ago in 2019. It is now being brought back for one-time-only for our 5th anniversary. Considered the epitome of Hajime Asaoka's art-deco design sensibilities, Reiwa is accorded masterpiece recognition as a Grand Series watch, and has received global acclaim for the beauty of its complex two-part dial. It sits together with Hajime Asaoka’s handmade atelier pieces to have hit record-breaking auction results and is today one of our most sought-after timepieces. Reiwa's simple beauty belies an ultra complex dialmaking process that has significantly low yield rates even back in 2019. This year's Anniversary Reiwa is multiple factors harder to make due to its higher color contrast. Since manufacturing started in January 2024, only an average of 5 out of every 100 dials produced have been accepted. The 2024 Anniversary Reiwa is by far the most difficult to manufacture watch in our repertoire, and the Reiwa line will be permanently retired after this launch.”
