The Presage Collection blends precision technology with superior craftsmanship and design, offering the finest in Japanese mechanical watchmaking with a uniquely Japanese sense of beauty.

In a special blue to match the color of Nausicaä’s dress, the enamel dial is also adorned with her unique symbol adornment. Another character, the giant insect Ohmu, is represented by a silhouette on the underside of the strap, with the blue cabochon crown recalling his eyes. This exquisite watch is equipped with a 24-jewel automatic movement which beats at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour, with an approximately 72-hour power reserve and manual winding capability. Crafted of stainless steel, with a curved anti-reflective sapphire crystal, dark brown sustainable leather strap, certified by the Leather Working Group (LWG), and tri-fold push button release clasp.
