Minase
100 years of watchmaking
Minase is one of the few Japanese watch brands that use the Zaratsu polishing technique (also known as Zaratsu). This typically hand -finishing technique is used to give steel components a perfectly smooth surface. Zaratsu was originally a Swiss-German polishing machine manufacturer that supplied equipment to Hayashi Seiki Seiko, the first Japanese case manufacturer to use the technique in Japan. Polishing one Divido steel bracelet can take up to 479 steps and over 15 hours.
All Minase watches are labeled with HiZ, a combination of the Japanese words "extraordinary" and "Land of the Rising Sun." HiZ certifies that the watch was manufactured under the following conditions:
1. Zaratsu finishing technique
2.MINASE patented case-in-case structure
3. MORE Concept (MINASE Original Reconstruction Equation)
The Minase philosophy embodies the Japanese principle of "monozukuri" - making things by hand. It represents the technical excellence, know-how and spirit of Japanese manufacturing. Monozukuri is a philosophy. Minase watchmakers demonstrate a serious attitude towards manufacturing, pride and dedication to their work. It is a relentless search to innovate, improve and perfect Japanese handmade watches.

MINASE craftsmanship available only from an authorized dealer
MINASE has the beauty and strength of an haute couture garment. That is why it is a difficult brand to handle unless you understand the precise composition of the work. Comptoine is an authorized MINASE dealer. Our online and in-store inventory are linked, so please come to our store to see the perfection of this watch.

Being serious about manufacturing
The glass and bezel are curved, and the bezel, prongs and indexes are finely cut and Zaratsu polished.
Furthermore, the case is designed with a gentle curve that follows the curve of the wrist, achieving an excellent fit. Comptoine respects MINASE's serious attitude towards manufacturing, and places the utmost importance on cooperating with each other and having customers actually see the products they create. Please come and experience "MINASE, which can only be experienced at Comptoine."

Artistic crafts created by artisans
There is no precedent even in Switzerland for a toolmaker to make a watch.
However, when you look at this watch, you can see the story of advanced technology and tremendous passion behind it. It is full of charm that will capture the hearts of the Swiss and other European markets. Just as predicted, MINASE has captured the hearts of watch collectors and grown into a symbol of the handmade craftsmanship that the world expects from Japan.

About repairs
Kyowa Seiko will handle maintenance (product repair and adjustment) and repolishing (re-polishing of the exterior) regardless of the period. Please contact us for details.
About name engraving <br/>We will engrave your name or a message on the rotating cone free of charge according to your request.
Unlike regular name engraving on the case back, this is a special service that is only possible with MINASE WATCH, as each watch is made individually. (*It will take about 10 days to complete.)

When you look at the DIVIDO from the front, you will notice that it has a skeleton on all four sides, which is a case-in-case structure. Furthermore, the case and lugs are disassembled, creating a polyhedral shape that would be impossible to achieve with a one-piece case. The DIVIDO2.0 (VM14 series) has undergone a minor change to a movement with a special rotor, making it a more durable watch.

This is MINASE's most impressive new work. The name of the Uruga collection is based on the Japanese word "beautiful." When Japanese people think of "beautiful," they think of elegance, nobility, and spiritual nobility. To explain it to people overseas, the jewels worn by royalty and nobility and the sparkle in the eyes of cool beauty Hollywood actresses are what we call "beautiful" in Japan.
To express this uniquely Japanese beauty, MINASE created the Uruga collection, which resembles the entire watch as a beautiful jewel, featuring a unique clamping structure in which the bezel, glass, and case are clamped between four claws from above and below.

Another distinctive feature of SEVEN WINDOWS is the ridges of the case, which are sharp like the edge of a Japanese sword.
The SALLAZ polishing technique, which manually pursues the opposing beauty of smoothness and sharpness, is truly a miracle of art. The inner case that holds the movement, the three-dimensional dial, and the three-dimensional indexes on the rings make the case-in-case structure look as if they are floating in mid-air, giving off an overwhelming presence that is truly original to MINASE.
