Owner: Nicholas A. 🇦🇺 6/09/26 Unit No. 1 Commission Piece: Ash Ketchum This timepiece is a commission piece based on one of my favorite Shiro Kara models, the Samurai 369 . What makes this specific piece unique is its hand-aged dial and worn brown bezel insert. The warm aged tones of the dial, hands, and bezel come together to create an earthy, vintage aesthetic. To achieve this look, I aged the dial with a deeper golden-brown patina and carefully aged the hour markers to a warmer tone than the other watches with the same dial, giving them a subtle amber-like appearance without overdoing the effect. The result is a watch that feels warm, balanced, and naturally aged. That amber glow inspired the name Kohaku (琥珀) , the Japanese word for amber. Overall, I'm very pleased with how this watch turned out and proud to showcase it to you. Congratulations, and thank you to Nicholas A. on your new Shiro Kara timepiece. — Shiro 🍮 Similar to other Shiro Kara Vintage timepieces, the Samurai 369 KOHAKU exemplifies meticulous handcrafting and precision, showcasing the impeccable Shiro Kara's craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail. It faithfully captures the essence of vintage watches…
