History of Kurono Watches

Founded by Hajime Asaoka, a celebrated self-taught watchmaker, Kurono Tokyo emerged in 2018 with a mission to make high-quality, design-focused watches more accessible. Asaoka, who had spent over a decade crafting ultra-exclusive handmade timepieces, decided to create Kurono to share his expertise with a broader audience. Initially launched as Chrono Tokyo for the Japanese market, the brand quickly gained international acclaim for its unique blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern design.

Kurono Tokyo offers a focused range of models, including time-only automatics, chronographs, calendar watches, and GMTs. The brand's commitment to quality and innovative design has earned it significant recognition, including a nomination at the Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG) awards. Incorporating Japanese cultural influences and artisanal techniques like Urushi lacquer, Kurono Tokyo continues to elevate the perception of Japanese watchmaking on the global stage, positioning itself as a prominent player in the world of independent horology.
