CLAMPING STRUCTURE

Elegant structure

The clamping structure, which was originally developed by MINASE for its watches, is inspired by the design of clasp-setting rings that best bring out the brilliance of the jewels.

With URGA42 or URGA31, the four, voluminously-cut clasps tightly and stably hold down the case and the crystal.
The design of the watches’ dials is inspired by the pristine waters of the Minase River, as their crystals have gradual, vertical curvatures.
These watches convey such simplicity yet precisely calculated play of light off their surfaces to provide enduring beauty.

With LUNA ARCH, an aesthetically-pleasing, streamlined bezel holds the case and the crystal, instead of four clasps.
When seen from the side, light shines through the clear crystal, amplifying the brilliance of the dial.

These elegant structures that shine on light’s edge are the products of MINASE’s advanced cutting and polishing technology.
