• 2022 Limited Edition Model, PLATINUM LEAF

The 2022 edition is the third in Knot’s “Years Limited Edition” series for its flagship AUTOMATIC model, with this year’s model featuring a unique platinum leaf design.

Platinum is a precious metal used in decorative items such as jewelery and high-end luxury watches. By utilizing platinum in its ultra-thin leaf form, the luxury platinum texture can be enjoyed at an accessible price.
For this edition, platinum leaf has been applied to the dial by Hakuichi, a company established in 1975. We wish to enable people to enjoy Kanazawa leaf not only as a luxury item, but also in everyday use, and have developed the Kanazawa leaf brand in the hope that it will become widely known around the county as a Kanazawa-made product.
The dial is coated in platinum leaf using a flake technique, giving the watch a beautiful texture created by the layered platinum sprinkles.

• About our chronograph model ATC-40

The ATC-40 is one of our range of mechanical models. We have achieved what many would have declared impossible. From the movement to the case to the dial, the ATC-40 is the revival of Japanese watchmaking that had long been lost, and at a price that many can afford.

The cases of our mechanical watches are finished with a special polishing technique performed by our partners at Hayashi Seiki Seizo. They manufacture many of the finest mechanical watches in Japan, with the case refinement process bearing similarities to Japanese sword making. Ultra-pure stainless steel is hammered and forged at high temperature, with the process repeated to produce a case with high metal density. The finishing touch is a special polishing technique known as “Sallaz polishing”. Hayashi Seiki Seizo is home to a formidable team of skilled craftsmen who carefully polish each piece to a beautiful, undistorted mirror surface.

The mechanism is highly sophisticated with some 310 parts – twice the number usually found – its high-beat movement oscillating 28,800 times per hour.

The watch can be paired with the strap of your choice, allowing it to be worn for any occasion.
