Minase watches

Minase is the watch brand of Kyowa Co., Ltd., a Japanese maker of precision cutting tools founded in 1963 that went on to produce watch components and cases for other companies. Kyowa established Minase in 2005. The watches are made at its workshop in Yuzawa, Akita Prefecture.

Minase cases use a 'case-in-case' construction, in which the movement and dial sit inside an inner case, and are finished with Sallaz polishing. The collections include the Divido, the Horizon and the 5 Windows.
