KNIS RETRO MODERN Watch
A retro-modern Japanese watch that combines classic elements and vintage inspiration with contemporary design and technology.
Adopts the traditional double-layered "sandwich dial" dial and the "Cobra hands" often used in military and pilot watches from the 1940s. The sand beige Super Luminova applied to the indexes and hour and minute hands creates a retro atmosphere.
sandwich dial
The double-layered dial "sandwich dial" has a structure in which two dials, the upper and lower, are stacked on top of each other. The upper dial has cut-out index and number markers, and the luminous material "Super-LumiNova" on the lower dial can be seen through the cut-outs.
Adopts Swiss-made "Super Luminova"
Swiss-made Super-LumiNova is a material that offers superior visibility, long-lasting luminescence, durability, and environmental friendliness compared to typical luminous paints. It absorbs and stores light, allowing it to shine brightly for long periods of time in darkened environments. You can clearly see the time and hands even at night or in low-light environments, and it has the property of continuing to emit light for a longer period of time than other phosphorescent materials.
Adopts classic "cobra needle"
The so-called "cobra needle", whose needle tip is shaped like a cobra, faithfully reproduces the design from the 1940s. The combination with Super Luminova, a sandy beige color with a retro feel, goes perfectly. It has the atmosphere of an elegant antique watch.
The movement is made by Citizen MIYOTA.
The use of a Japanese-made movement with high precision and reliability reflects the brand concept of wanting the product to be used for many years to come. In the unlikely event that a movement malfunction occurs, it is easy to secure parts and you can rest assured about the after-sales service.
Adopts sapphire glass
Sapphire glass is a highly pure and sophisticated glass used for the windshield of luxury watches and for optical experiments. Its excellent transparency makes the dial easier to see, and it is much more scratch resistant than mineral crystal glass.
High quality genuine leather belt
The belt is made of high-quality genuine cowhide leather with a crocodile pattern. As you use it, it will become more flavorful.
Practical and high quality D buckle strap
The double door type D buckle has a beautiful appearance and a luxurious feel. Equipped with a D buckle, which is only used on leather straps for luxury watches, minimizes damage to the strap when putting it on and taking it off, and prevents it from slipping off.
Case size is 38mm
We selected a 38mm case diameter, opting for a smaller size compared to many brands that offer models with larger faces. Our emphasis was on achieving a balanced design, ensuring the dial is neither too large nor too small while maintaining a strong presence.
Design that can be used both on and off
The simple design makes it suitable for both business and casual styles.
A timeless and sophisticated face that naturally blends into your style.
It is sure to be a piece that you can use for a long time, regardless of trends.
The beautiful and elegant design will make your wrist look stylish.
Customer Reviews
I needed a good replacement watch for my railroad job. Per the CFR the watch must be accurate to within 30 seconds of the time at Dispatch, my previous watch would lose time over there course of a month. All watches become inaccurate over time, but the previous one was a digital watch that was just too difficult to set, so I began my search for a good replacement and found this watch by KNIS. I am amazed with the finish and quality. It is accurate throughout the day, the power reserve keeps me going without worry, and it looks absolutely stunning. I have yet to determine the accuracy over a long period of time, but even if it is less accurate being an automatic/mechanical watch, it wins the points back with how easy it is to set the time especially with it having a hacking function. My only complaint is the clasp on the strap. This is a huge nitpick but during the winter months I have to layer up for my job, and my coat will push the watch to the end of my wrist. This causes the clasp release to activate against my wrist and open the clasp at inconvenient times. I don't see this being a problem during summer months when I am not layering clothes, and for winter I may add a more traditional buckle. Other than that the watch performs flawlessly and I am happy to have found such a great piece of timekeeping that meets my job requirements and can still be worn on my days off
久しぶりに機械式の腕時計が欲しいと思わせる一目惚れでした。 今日、現物が来ました。思わずニヤけてしまいました。程よい大きさと重量感。作りや細部をみると、あの値段は嬉しい限りです。 この時計とは長い付き合いになりそうです（笑） KNISさん、素敵な時計を作ってくださり、ありがとうございます!
As soon as I saw this watch I had to have it. The classic design, with the multi layered face is a joy to see. When the watch is in day light you can clearly see the texture of the face, and the inset numerals. The hands work very well, and have a 30's style.
The only part of the watch I didn't like was the strap with the buckle mechanism which I could not get used to. Amazing watch, I shall be back for more !
