Rising Hour Club
Japanese independent watchmakers, tracked from Geneva.
A platform to follow the Japanese watchmakers who work alone or in small workshops, making most of each watch by hand. Their world is written in Japanese and keeps its own pace; we track it closely and share it in English, from Geneva.
Each issue follows makers such as Naoya Hida, Masahiro Kikuno, Daizoh Makihara, Otsuka Lotec or Quiet Club: news, design highlights, launches, order windows, events, auctions and what collectors in Japan are saying.
