The porcelain-dialed Credor Kuon
It's hard to get a good shot of the porcelain dial that does the Baby Eichi justice, but this one (albeit slightly blurry) hopefully gives you an idea of the beautiful dial and super-supple bracelet.

That sounds great ππ
Only one other fellow forum member that I know of currently owns one. I'd love some company ! π
Thank you, my friend, I appreciate that ! ππ
The smooth sweep hand is hypnotic!
Thank you, Champ! π
I was really torn between the Kuon and the ultra-thin and equally beautiful Gold Feather, but opted for the Kuon for its greater versatility. I'm still thinking of adding the GF, though !
Fantastic!
Just did a little exploration. What a great decoration on the movement. Looks a bit like the Krayon decoration. I googled if the dial is hand painted and it says it is. Quite a bang for the buck. Congratulations on a spectacular piece!
Thank you for the kind words, mblum3 ! π
I believe that the dials on the Eichis, which are on another level (both finishing and price wise), are done by hand, but the Kuons probably not. Beautiful nevertheless! d π
Many thanks, nicetomeetyou ! π
Credor doesn't offer a strap option and, looking at how the attachment is configured, I assume an off the shelf strap for it would be hard to find. I assume a custom strap would be possible,
Would definitely increase Credor visibility/availability.
Probably not in the cards at Seiko upstairs, though, seeing how they treat the brands so separately and distinctly in Japan.
