Why customers love Kurono Tokyo?

A year and a half ago, I stopped by the Kurono showroom, a charming place where I was able to try out the few models on display that were all out of stock. The Reiwa 2024 had not yet been released, but the tests had confirmed the quality of manufacture, the refinement, and the "portability" of the brand. It's as if making cases that fit small wrists was a Japanese specialty (exclusive?). When the anniversary Reiwa came out, in the photo, the dial looked much more worked than the old models with a beautiful shade of…

I was lucky enough to be able to buy the watch directly on the website and, after a wait of about 4 months, I had it in my hands!
