Only 10 pieces a year will be produced.
marks the first watch collaboration for Hida. Due to his limited production, only 10 of these will be made a year with numbers individually engraved onto the caseback, so if you like what you see, you would be advised to ring up The Armoury and put yourself on the list as these will be very hard to come by. It’s a perfect pairing: Both The Armoury and Naoya Hida share a refined aesthetic with retro influences and gentlemanly design.
“Our version of Type 2 is called Lettercutter because we designed the whole font for this watch and we were inspired by the art of letter cutting,” Cho told, speaking about the Arabic numerals. “It’s an old craftsman’s job where they would cut letters into stones, so if there was an old stone building you would hire a letter cutter to come and cut the letters in and create the signage.
The watch featured a closed caseback, but under the hood is the Caliber 3020CS, which has 45 hours of power reserve and an escapement beating at 28,800 vph. It is based on an ETA 7750 chronograph movement that Hida reworked into a time-only movement with a center-seconds function, which is then topped off with a new decorated top plate.
