Discover the limited edition charity watch by independent Japanese watchmaker Hajime Asaoka, benefiting children with autism. A unique collaboration.

Beerstyle proudly announces the arrival of a special charity watch designed by independent Japanese watchmaker Hajime Asaoka, a limited edition piece for Sincere Fine Watches. This post highlights the watch's aesthetic appeal, its charitable purpose benefiting children with autism, and the collaborative effort behind its creation.

So glad that this piece finally arrived. A 50 piece limited edition for Sincere Fine Watches and Singapore Purists literally took half of them I believe. Part of the proceeds go to Rainbow Centre, a social service organization that aids children with autism to participate meaningfully in society thru practical education, family and community support and special education programs.

Key Points from the Discussion

The watch is praised for its appealing aesthetics and reasonable price, especially considering its charitable aspect and limited availability.
The 'Eggshell' dial variant is expected to be fully delivered to its 50 owners within the next month, while a grey dial version is facing manufacturing delays.
The watch is described as 'obscenely reasonable' in terms of price, further emphasizing its value proposition given its design and charitable contribution.
While the movement is noted as an ebauche, the overall design and charitable purpose make it a commendable piece.
