It features a delicate cushion-shaped case whose carefully considered dimensions are perfectly suited to men's wrists. It is comfortable and pleasant to wear on any occasion. Crafted in 316L stainless steel, it measures 34 mm in length, 34 mm in width, and 11 mm in thickness. Its polished finish gives it a subtly radiant look. It is topped by a domed sapphire crystal that extends over the dial, ensuring excellent legibility at all angles thanks to its anti-reflective coating. It guarantees optimal time reading and strong resistance against potential shocks and scratches. A slim silver-toned crown engraved with the brand name is positioned at 3 o'clock, allowing you to set the hours and minutes at any time. Its knurled design makes it easy to grip. You can admire the beautiful movement gears and its decorated rotor through the transparent sapphire crystal anti-reflective caseback. This screw-down caseback ensures water resistance of 50 meters.

The Dial

The case of this model features a charming textured dial that is sure to catch every eye. It showcases a round, cream-colored base adorned with a grained finish, lending it an elegant and subtly refined look. Gold-toned hour markers add a sophisticated touch while ensuring clear, reliable timekeeping. At the center, two leaf-shaped hands glide smoothly alongside a slender seconds hand with a round counterweight, marking the passage of hours, minutes, and seconds. They point to twelve individually hand-applied gold-toned indices in classic Breguet-style Arabic numerals, reinforcing the watch's vintage character. The signed "Japan Made" chapter ring features a classic minutes track with small yellow gold-toned rectangles at every 5-minute interval. The look is completed by the brand name printed below 12 o'clock as a signature. At 6 o'clock, Kuoe notes the movement type beneath the collection name "Royal Smith."

The Movement

A Japanese-made automatic movement powers this watch, delivering a 42-hour power reserve. Known for its quality and flawless performance, the movement chosen is the Miyota 90S5 caliber. It drives the hands with smooth precision, providing accurate and reliable display of hours, minutes, and seconds in all circumstances. Equipped with 24 jewels and beating at 28,800 vph, or 4 Hz, this movement features a stop-seconds mechanism.

The Strap

The bracelet paired with this model is also crafted in polished 316L stainless steel and delivers an exquisite sporty, modern style that perfectly complements the watch's design. It will wrap your wrist with refinement, ensuring great comfort on every occasion. Its five central link rows feature a rice grain texture framed by two rows of rectangular links, creating a captivating effect. This bracelet measures 21 cm in length, adjustable down to 14 cm, and proves to be the elegant complement that elevates any outfit. Fitted with push buttons, its deployant clasp allows you to put it on and take it off smoothly and securely. Note that this bracelet has a lug width of 18 mm and is easy to swap thanks to its quick-release spring bars.

Water Resistance

With a water resistance of 50 meters, or 5 ATM in standard watchmaking terms, this is a timepiece that handles the occasional splash but is not built for prolonged water exposure. You can wear it in the shower from time to time, but to preserve the quality and precision of the movement, our watch specialists strongly recommend keeping it away from the H2O found in the bath, pool, or ocean. In short: no swimming, no diving, and no prolonged contact or submersion.
