Mr. A is building a new home in 2020, the Olympic year.
The first watch case is produced at a reduced cost.

First, select the species of wood for the clock case.

Mr. A, visiting from Tokyo.

This time, we chose a less expensive option.

We will give you a rough idea of the wood species, leather, and price range as soon as possible,
We have provided an approximate finished price.

When it comes to lowering costs.
The wood species will be maple.

This maple wood,
We are so full of North American materials that there is no need to worry about depletion.
That is why the price is low! This is how it works.

Used in Japanese housing, even though it is inexpensive.
It is more expensive than plantation cypress.

Japanese furniture makers, for example.
The maple is used to make plywood and other materials,
Instrument makers around the world are
As a material for guitars and violins

In this way, the weak point of maple, which has a weak wood grain, is covered.

Next, interior leather

Now for the interior,
me too
We provided this information in "A Cost-Effective Choice.
Then the leather would be PIG leather.
This is a pig that we take care of on a daily basis.

When it comes to PIG leather.
It is still characterized by prominent "pores".

Since these pores look like "goose bumps".
The preference varies from customer to customer.
Female customers are particularly concerned.

There was a time when PIG leather was synonymous with bad leather.
Today, the impression has changed considerably.

Especially regarding Japanese pigs and their raw hides.
European high brands are
It is also used for the inner lining of bags.

This is because European PIG raw hides are
It seems to be because the "pores" are larger than those of Japanese raw hides.

For reference, here is a close-up of domestic raw hog leather
It looks like this.

The visible side is ↓.

This is what it looks like when photographed from its backside. ↓↓

If you look at the pores
It has "three holes".
This is what makes PIG leather unique.
It is up to the customer to decide if they care or not.

By the way, Japanese PIG leather is
The quality is better than that of European products.
It looks like food.

They seem to be eating leftover wheat.

Now, Mr. A who came to the store,
This time with a less costly choice.
The following low-cost specifications have been decided to order.

The main body of the case is made of maple wood.

Come to think of it, I used to.
I understand there were many Rolexes.
Today is AP!


Let me tell you a little more about it.
Its APs also continue to proliferate.
At last, "a watch case that fits the atmosphere of the AP."
So,
Hawaiian koa wood" is a material that is used in
It seems to have been a good candidate.



No wonder,
It is a fairly high-grade material.




Hawaiian koa wood!

As for your budget
In Hawaiian koa wood.
Watch case and watch tray
It is expected to cost about 300,000 yen.



Hawaiian koa wood also
It's a bit of a pinch, but...
We can also work with your budget!



First,
One material that fits completely within your budget is
HERE!

I got a little shirata.
Hawaiian koa wood.



There are two reasons why this material is reasonably priced

1: The wood grain is slightly docile.
2: The top and side panels are not made of the same material.
Finished in separate Hawaiian koa wood.



For these two reasons.
The finish is relatively reasonable.



However, it is Hawaiian koa, a high-grade wood!
We will finish it without any discomfort.
Please leave it to us.



and
Here is the material for the watch tray!

If you are a customer of Soulbird watch cases, you can use the following
The "Watch Tray" used by a large percentage of our customers.



Among them, we can produce one-of-a-kind items at a reasonable price.
Clock tray made from scrap wood.


It is a piece of scrap wood from the production of a watch case.
The size and thickness are also very similar.
The outer dimensions of the watch tray are about the size of A4, so it is possible to make a watch tray of about the size of A4.
For home use
I think it is a good size.



and above all else
Since it is made from scraps of wood
While it is a one-of-a-kind item
The price is surprisingly low.
Free for the customer!
We are pleased to inform you that



I can do the math properly.
I don't think a sensible adult would do that.
It's only a soulbird.
For customers who have ordered a watch case
I let myself believe it is a service.




What about further ranks?

It's a common story.
What about something a little higher up the ladder?"
This is why,

The watch case is made of

I'm not sure what it is, but there's a mysterious atmosphere on the left side of the screen.
The grain of the wood shows.


Yes, yes, this is it.
This is an important point that should not be overlooked.



This is the mystery of Hawaiian koa wood.
It is also interesting.
