Windows Watches

Manufactured in Japan, all Minase timepieces bear the registered label “HiZ“, a concept inspired by the Japanese words Hizu (exceptional) and Hi Izuru Kuni (Land of the rising sun).

The products labelled HiZ are unique with innovative features such as the “case in case” structure, the extraordinary Sallaz finish and the construction principle “MORE” (Minase Original Rebuild Equation).

Windows COLLECTION

Skilled craftsmen spend more than 20 hours to polish a single watch. The flawless mirror polished surfaces stand in perfect contrast to the brushed areas. The top sapphire crystal is spherical on both of its axis and has an antireflective coating. The polyhedric crown bears the brand’s logo, a drill head that pays homage to the origins of the parent company, Kyowa.

Handmade Watches

Yusuke Takahashi has been working for Minase for 45 years. The Windows was a real challenge in terms of case-machining:

« I love the fact that Minase village is located so deep in the mountains that no one would ever think there is industrial production here. Yet our skilled workers are producing some of the highest quality precision watches in the country. I love the 7 WINDOWS because our cutting and polishing techniques are displayed everywhere on it, I can feel the whole history of this company looking through it. I am very proud of this watch because to me, it is the result of a lifetime’s work at Minase. »

Minase are mechanical movement watches made in Japan
