Master Hometime


Text by OPENERS



The "Master" series, known as the other representative work alongside the Reverso, is a collection that excels in practicality. Among them, the "Master Hometime" is a particularly popular model, a GMT watch that simultaneously incorporates home time and travel time, a specialty of the brand.



The pictured model is the latest version, released in 2008. Its dial layout has been redesigned for a more symmetrical appearance, making each function easier to distinguish. The silver hand in the center displays travel time, while the blue hand indicates home time. The date at 3 o'clock is linked to the travel time, and the 24-hour indicator at 12 o'clock is synchronized with the home time. Both time displays share the central minute hand and the small seconds at 6 o'clock.

By ingeniously linking these functions, the design, which could easily become overly complex, is rendered remarkably legible and functional. The ability to set all functions using just the crown is a testament to the prowess of this esteemed manufacture.

Automatic winding. 28,800 vibrations per hour. 48-hour power reserve. Case diameter 40mm. Stainless steel case. Crocodile strap. 5 ATM water resistance. ¥805,000 (Stainless Steel). ¥1,837,500 (18K Pink Gold).
