Media Information

For those of you in the media, such as TV and film, who use costumes and props with themes of "cool," "stylish," and "classical," how about pocket watches? I've been a first-class watchmaker for over 50 years, and I'd like to talk about watches. I'd like to cooperate as much as possible with publishers to feature watches as a gentleman's item.



We also welcome requests for appearances from television and radio stations.
If you are requesting to borrow items from magazines, dramas, movies, etc., it would be helpful if you could pick out about 5 to 7 items.

Nearly 90% of our products are imported watches (genuine), so there are many cases where the item you wish to rent is not in stock at the time.
