GOOD TO KNOW
• Fresh to the market, consigned by the original owner
• Well-preserved highly sought-after model with hand-painted porcelain dial
• Complete set
Credor is the ultra-luxe, top-of-the-line name Seiko applies to its finest watches. And the very finest Credor watches are produced at the Micro Artist Studio, a tiny workshop at Seiko’s factory in Shiojiri, a city in central Japan. The work at the Micro Artist Studio is so artisanal that the dozen craftsmen employed there produce just around 30 watches per year.
Originally introduced in 2008 as the Eichi I, the model was gently revised and succeeded by the Eichi II in 2014. The dial completely pared down, and the case size increased, these changes were a result of the craftsmen at the Micro Artist Studio coming together and refining the Eichi into an even better timepiece, reflective of their vision and skills. Conceived with almost no frills, yet every detail lavishly attended to, the Eichi II is one of the most understated, yet horologically compelling watches of our time. In fact, the watch is known in horological circles as the Japanese version of the Philippe Dufour Simplicity. The porcelain dial – a pristine white thanks to its specially formulated porcelain - is hand-painted by an artisan of the Micro Artist Studio who relies on a tiny brush and a microscope. So meticulous are these artisans that only one dial can be produced per day.
The present pink gold watch is fresh-to-the-market consigned by the original owner. It is well-preserved and exemplifies the attention to detail seen by the Micro Artist Studio from the exacting bevelled edges of the movement bridges to the sublime 39mm diameter case with wide bezel. The Eichi II is a refined timepiece that stands alongside the finest European watches for excellence and technical mastery.
