Hyakuichi Chronograph Leather Silver X Midnight Blue [HYAKUICHI 101] No.8A Watch, Strap,

Japanese-made quartz movement 10 ATM water resistance Chronograph 60 minutes total 24-hour timer Date calendar Leather band (genuine cowhide) The Chronograph No. 8, equipped with a high-quality Japanese movement, now has a redesigned face, the No. 8A, added to the lineup. While the No. 8 only had bar indices, the No. 8A adds applied Arabic numerals at "12, 2, 4, 8, 10" as hour markers. This makes it easier to read the time and adds definition to the dial, giving it an even more opulent and luxurious impression. The Arabic numerals are finely engraved, significantly enhancing their presence. The base color of the dial is a beautiful midnight blue, which contrasts perfectly with the silver and rose gold. The sunray finish causes it to shine radially depending on how the light hits it, showing various faces depending on the brightness of the surroundings. The same case as the No. 8 is used, but to emphasize the contrast with the midnight blue, the bezel is the same color as the case instead of black. The combination of sunray and hairline finish is exquisite, with each enhancing the other. The band is made of genuine cowhide with a fine and elegant grain finish. This watch features a leather band. The deep blue color, close to black, enhances the sense of unity with the dial. Furthermore, off-white stitching is used to add contrast to the band itself. The moderate softness balances lightness and comfortable wear, making it suitable for extended periods of wear. While the leather band may not be suitable for use in wet environments, the case boasts the same high water resistance of 10 ATM as before. This water resistance should be sufficient for everyday use. The three sub-dials on the dial are a chronograph with functions beyond the usual second hand: a stopwatch second hand at the bottom, a 60-minute counter on the left, and a 24-hour counter on the right. There is also a date display window at the 4 o'clock position. These specifications are the same as the No. 8. The adoption of a leather band gives this model a cool and dressy feel rather than a sporty one, but functionally it is of course suitable for use in sports scenes. The profound presence of the No. 8A is perhaps unparalleled in this price range. We encourage you to try on this model that is suitable for any occasion.
