My Own Watch | The Watch Kundo Koyama Loves

<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> The "Cupidon" "KUNDO" model by Pierre Kunz. A rare model created specifically for Koyama, it is one of only three in the world, and with each piece featuring stones of different colors, no two are exactly alike.
<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> "Just as the heart of a watch beats to the rhythm of time, love repeats its pulse to the rhythm of passion" (Pierre Kunz) – Pierre Kunz's "Cupidon" is characterized by its heart motif. Engraved within the heart are the words "BEAUCOUP," "PASSIONNEMENT," and "A LA FOLIE."
<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> The movement features an engraved heart. The design, incorporating angels, snakes, and doves, tells a story.
<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> He wears it even for work. "I often wear this watch for important presentations at my company, 'Orange,' or when we go out for dinner with everyone," says Kundo Koyama.
<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> In addition to the Pierre Kunz, he introduced several other watches from his collection.
<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> All are Koyama's personal belongings. A distinguished lineup of brands including Breguet, Rolex, Franck Muller, Patek Philippe, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Cartier, and Hublot.
<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> "A wristwatch marks my own time, so it's like a footprint. It's always close by, working for me, and that inspires a deep affection," says Kundo Koyama.
<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> The Breguet "TYPE XX," purchased 16 or 17 years ago. "I've always admired the Breguet brand. It was incredibly expensive back then, but this watch, a relatively sporty re-edition of an older model, was within reach, so I decided to buy it," says Koyama.
<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> "The Rolex Daytona. An old acquaintance worked at Wako, so I went with Rolex. They said it would take time due to its popularity, and I'd almost forgotten about it, but about seven years later, I received a call saying my turn had come. I have to applaud Wako for holding my reservation for seven years," says Koyama.
<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> "I bought this Franck Muller Master Banker on a trip to Hong Kong. Incidentally, in one of my works, there's a scene featuring a wristwatch, and it's a Franck Muller. I used it as a symbol of a 'flashy fellow' (laughs)," says Koyama.
<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> "I bought this Patek Philippe World Time because I wanted a platinum watch. I was speaking with a personal shopper at the Seibu department store, and they showed me this, saying they'd buy it if it moved me. I decided to buy it on the spot," says Koyama.
<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> "This Jaeger-LeCoultre has an interesting story behind its serial number," says Koyama.
<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> "This is a limited edition of 1000 pieces from Jaeger-LeCoultre, available only to Aston Martin owners. My birthday is June 23rd, so I told them I'd buy it if they had one with the serial number 623. And they actually had one! (laughs)," says Koyama.
<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> "I made a video for a friend's wedding reception, and they gave me this as a thank you gift," says Koyama.
<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> "This Cartier Roadster holds many memories with my friends," says Koyama.
<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> "I already owned a LeCoultre, but I felt I had to buy a Reverso. When I wear it during meetings, I find myself flipping it over and playing with it," says Koyama.

<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> "When I met Jean-Claude Biver, the CEO of Hublot, for an interview, it was the day before the Academy Award nominations were announced. When I mentioned it, he said, 'You can wear it,' and gave me this Big Bang," says Koyama.
<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> "It was nominated, I wore it to America, and it even won an award – it's truly a lucky watch!" says Koyama.
<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> "I received this as a prize when I won the Best Screenplay award at the Japan Academy Prize," says Koyama.
<strong>My Own Watch｜Kundo Koyama</strong> "Although it's a women's model, it's a piece with deep sentimental value," says Koyama.
