Three Auspicious Designs
A winder that automatically winds the mainspring of a mechanical watch. Like the watch itself, this item, which demands both functionality and beauty, has been enhanced with Japanese aesthetics.
The simple cubic styling is graced with the luster of lacquer and the precision of gold maki-e. The beautiful patterns showcase the techniques of Hikone Buddhist altars, refined over many years.
The top surface of the winder features maki-e patterns arranged in a checkered design. Among traditional Japanese motifs, three auspicious designs have been adopted: "Uzurichidori," which combines plover and swirl patterns; "Hana Shichihō," featuring karahana flowers that pair well with auspicious emblems; and "Naminrin," combining the Seigaiha wave pattern and scale pattern to represent waves.
The internal mechanism is produced in Switzerland. It operates with minimal noise during winding, and the rotation direction and daily rotations can be manually set via computer.
Furthermore, custom orders for individual patterns, family crests, or logos are also accepted.
Swiss watches are intricate works of craftsmanship. The "KISSHO Single Watch Winder," befitting their scale, elevates the time spent winding your watch into a more refined experience.
