Tokyo is in the midst of a heat wave.

You came to our store to select a watch case.

Solid Indian Rose.　First time wood.

 

 

First visit to our store!

Quite hot in Tokyo.

The outside temperature is probably around 35 degrees Celsius.

The temperature is a bit dangerous.

Soul Bird is located on the first basement floor

Due to the wood and leather in storage.

We control humidity and temperature.

It is hard to tell what the atmosphere is like outside.

 

 

 

In the midst of all this,

You came to our store to select a watch case.

I just greeted a customer,

It is evident that it is ridiculously hot outside.

 

 

 

In such a heat wave

It was your first visit to our store.

Thank you very much.

 

 

Price of materials

 

We were asking customers who came to our store what they wanted to do.

With this wood!"

It seems that you have not decided on the specifics of

In the meantime, we'd like to hear from you about your various wishes.

We will provide information on materials.

 

 

 

meanwhile

 

 

 

 

"Why is this wood more expensive than that wood?"

Why is it that the same piece of wood can cost so much differently because of the grain?"

 

 

 

First time customers come to the store...

This is the part that almost always seems hard to understand.

 

 

 

And these two are.

It is the most important and biggest point.

 

 

 

Low-priced lumber" = "well-distributed, uncharacteristic grain, available whenever you want it."

High-priced lumber" = "Low circulation, rare grains, and can only be obtained by searching for it."

 

 

 

in other wordsLumber with "beauty that many customers find attractive" is "expensive."This will be the case.

Also, "expensive" lumber is less likely to be bought and sold in large sizes,

They are bought and sold in very small sizes.

 

 

 

in that caseEndless yield."That is to say.

This is how the price works.

 

 

 

neighbourhood in a red-light district

 

In the course of showing you around,

I blogged about it the other day.

I was explaining about "sandalwood" (cittern), which we received various inquiries about.

Customer,The wood that was propped up next to it "caught my attention.He said.

 

 

 

That's what I'm talking about.

 

 

 

The "Indian Rose."

 

 

 

Here it is at last, the Indian Rose.

International trade of all rosewood species has been restricted by CITES since January 2, 2017.

Of course, we understand that the price will skyrocket.

It was a material I would have kept for a long time if I could have. ....

You have encountered your first customer.

 

 

 

Pull the lumber as soon as possible.

We decided to let the customer hold it for a trial.

 

 

 

Heavy!"

 

 

 

That's right.

Indian rose is also heavy like ebony.

 

 

 

The moment it was put in your hand

It's "instant decision."

 

 

 

I think that is true.

Beauty without hesitation."It is.

 

 

 

This is the first production of "Indian Rose" at Soulbird.

 

 

 

The wristwatch was placed on top of the Indian Rose for a commemorative photo.

 

But why is the Lange so beautiful?

Beautiful Lange and a beautiful Indian Rose by chance.

 

 

 

The specifications are as follows

 

The watch case body has been determined.

The next step is to select the interior leather.

If the watch case body is made of rare or fine wood,

I think it's almost like "pastured rams."

I think it is the best choice.

 

 

 

So this time it's "K001 French Rum."

The case mat PIG black was decided.

 

 

 

Even before it's finished.

It is possible to make an extraordinary watch case.

It is an easily imaginable specification.

 

 

 

I look forward to seeing the finished product in three months.

Thank you very much for coming to our store in the hot weather.

It makes for a terrific case!

I will add more after completion.
